Thus, a base board connecting with the first side board (44) is prevented from moving to the downstream side in the sheet feed direction. As a result, the package member which can be prevented from getting jammed in the sheet feed path during the sheet feed operation of a printer (1) when the package member is stored in the printer (1) regardless of the presence or absence of sheets (7) therein can be provided.
