Abstract
A media guide for assisting in threading the head end of a rolled, radiation sensitive media through an imaging station in an imaging device. The media guide has a longitudinally extending arcuate input media guide and a parallel longitudinally extending arcuate output media guide with the open arcuate surfaces thereof facing in the same direction. A longitudinally extending imaging aperture slot is positioned between and parallel to the arcuate input and output media guides. The input side of the imaging aperture slot is located above the output side of the aperture to prevent the media from catching in the aperture slot.
