Abstract
A recording apparatus has accommodations for receiving and retaining a spindle for a roll or spool of recording media. The spindle is characterized in that it has a shoulder at one end constituting a stop guide for a roll of recording medium of a first width. The spindle is also provided with a retractable stop member which, when extended, comprises a stop guide for a roll of recording medium of a predetermined narrower width. The spindle is contoured to firmly engage the core of a roll of recording medium at about the mid point of the width dimension. The selected stop guides provide means for effectively centering either of the two widths of recording medium with respect to the spindle and, hence, the recording apparatus.
