Abstract

A dual mode document handling apparatus in which either individual cut sheet documents or computer-form web documents are advanced to an exposure station of a reproducing machine. Successive cut sheet documents are advanced in a first direction to the exposure station. Successive incremental lengths of a computer form web document are moved to the exposure station in a second direction substantially normal to the first direction. The machine operator may select either computer-form web document feeding or cut sheet document feeding.
