Abstract

A sheet material feeding mechanism for use in a duplex duplicating machine. A pressure roller extends laterally across a sheet path for engaging the blank side of a previously imaged copy sheet. A feed roller assembly forms a nip with the pressure roller through which the sheet is fed. The feed roller assembly includes a pair of feed rollers mounted on the outside of a pair of support members for positioning the feed rollers near the marginal edges of the sheet to preclude tracking the imaged side of the sheet. The feed rollers are axially adjustable for accommodating different sheet sizes.
