Abstract

A low cost copy output stacker for engineering size copies includes a vertical catch tray molded into front doors of a copier/printer for accepting the lead edge of the copies and allowing the copies to bend over the top of the catch tray in a stacked position under gravity. A manually operated hinged stop is positioned in a down position blocking the path of copy sheets in order to keep them from reaching the bottom of the catch tray for stacking copy sheets size 11" to 24" and positioned in an up position for copy sheet sizes 24" to 48".
