Abstract
The invention relates to apparatus for use in printing devices for the deposit of sheet-type recording media transported across a platen into a deposit tray area disposed above the platen. Deposit of the sheets is carried out by means of transport or delivery rollers which seize each sheet after it has passed through a printing area adjacent the platen and lift the sheet over a lower edge of the deposit tray for stacking. A pivotally mounted common carrier bracket is provided to carry a support wall which forms the lower edge surface of the deposit tray and the transport roller means. The support wall has a stripper surface formed along one end thereof containing bias means for resiliently pressing the recording medium into driving engagement against the transport rollers. The other end of the support wall is formed with intake guide surfaces for leading sheets into engagement with the intake side of the platen. The carrier bracket is pivotally rotatable so as to enable an operator easy access to the sheet feed path and the platen.
