Discharging device and ink jet printer

A discharging device, comprising:

• a conveyed object receiving unit having a supplementary conveyed object receiving part, on which a conveyed object can be placed, and being configured so as to be changed to an extended state that said supplementary conveyed object receiving part is extended;
• a discharge unit for discharging a conveyed object which has been conveyed, to said conveyed object receiving unit;
• and
• a controller capable of performing operations of:
• determining the state of said conveyed object receiving unit;
• and
• accelerating a discharge speed of the conveyed object discharged by said discharge unit if the state of said conveyed object receiving unit is in the extended state, wherein said conveyed object receiving unit is configured to move between different extended states each having a different degree of extension, and said controller is further capable of performing an operation of accelerating the discharge speed of the conveyed object discharged by said discharge unit as the degree of extension of said conveyed object receiving unit becomes larger.
