• a shutter unit including a contact section with which a leading end of the medium conveyed by the first conveyance roller pair comes into contact upstream in the conveyance direction of a nip position of the second conveyance roller pair and displaceable to a first posture for correcting skew of the medium when the leading end of the medium comes into contact with the contact section and a second posture for retracting the contact section from the medium such that the medium after the correction reaches the nip position;
• and
• a third conveyance roller pair disposed between the first conveyance roller pair and the contact section in a state of the first posture in the conveyance direction and configured to convey the medium in the conveyance direction, wherein
• the third conveyance roller pair does not nip the medium before the leading end of the medium comes into contact with the contact section in the first posture of the shutter unit and nips and conveys the medium after the correction and when the shutter unit is displaced from the first posture to the second posture.
