Abstract
An impact printer employing a continuously rotating print drum is constructed to accept different sizes and thicknesses of print sheets between the drum and hammers; one of such sheets for example comprises an endwise feedable sheet automatically advanced, by index means, beneath the drum and upwardly into a slot between the drum and hammers. Unusually advantageous sheet clamping means and type fonts on the drum, are also provided, to increase printing speed.
