Abstract
In a facsimile recorder receiving a cassette holding a supply of recording paper and having a linear recording electrode, the recorder has a frame detachably receiving the cassette. A scanning electrode on the frame cooperates with the linear electrode on the cassette to mark the recording paper with electrical signals applied to the electrodes as the paper is drawn from the cassette. A cover hinged to the frame carries a resilient member engaging the cassette to urge the linear electrode toward the path of the recording paper and scanning electrode thereby insuring good recording contact with the paper.
