a feeding roller that feeds a printing medium;

a separation roller capable of selectively taking a first state where a separating force that separates a plurality of printing media conveyed by the feeding roller one by one occurs and a second state where the separating force does not occur at a position at which the separation roller is in pressure contact with the feeding roller;

a control unit configured to perform control to bring about, in a case that transmission of a driving force between a driving source of the feeding roller and the feeding roller is shut off while the feeding roller and the separation roller abut each other, a first standby state where the separation roller is in the first state, and a second standby state where the separation roller is in the second state, the first standby state being a state in which the feeding roller and the separation roller are in contact; and

a display control unit configured to select from among the first standby state and the second standby state using an operation panel.
