Abstract

Guide means for a printer including two conductor members for guiding a paper web out of the printer. In a first position, the conductor members form a tightly fitting cover for a rectangular hole in a casing associated with the printer, where the paper web is conducted in a gap, tapering in the direction of paper advance, between the conductor members and out of the printer. In a second position of the conductor members, a rectangular opening is formed behind the members, making the paper web accessible for feeding into a tractor feeder of the push-pull traction feed type.
