Abstract
Two endless paths are provided, one for an original sheet and one for a copy sheet. The paths have respective parallel portions which extend past a copy station at which an image from an original sheet in the one path is reproduced onto a copy sheet in the other path. At will, one or both sides of the original sheet can be copied and one or both sides of the copy sheet can receive copy. To expose both sides of the respective sheet to the copy station, the sheet passes once through its path to the outlet thereof and is then moved in reverse, from the outlet to a set of switching points which reintroduce it into the path while turning it side-for-side in preparation for another pass past the copying station.
