Abstract
An apparatus for selectively feeding desired sheets from a plurality of cassettes which store different respective sizes and kinds of sheets includes a handle lever located adjacent to the plurality of cassettes which are disposed in a vertically aligned stack. When the handle lever is moved to the location of a particular cassette containing desired sheets, only that cassette is rendered ready for feeding the sheets. If that cassette is exhausted, an indicator lamp provides a signal for sheet loading.
