Abstract

An ergonomic printer suitable for use in an aircraft cockpit includes a polarizing arrangement preventing a paper roll being inserted in a support the wrong way around and a paper extraction arrangement which operates on the paper roll in a region thereof substantially opposite an access orifice. The paper extraction arrangement is associated with a guide arrangement for feeding the paper successively to a feed device, a print station and an outlet slot in a front wall of the printer. The printer may be flush-mounted in a wall of the cockpit of an aircraft.
