Abstract
An enclosure system includes a light-tight enclosure and a means for guiding the direction of movement of phototypesetting paper to and from the enclosure. The enclosure is capable of storing a roll of phototypesetting paper, of dispensing paper from said roll, and of returning paper onto said roll without folding or otherwise buckling the paper. The system obviates the need for a separate 'take-up' enclosure and eliminates the problem of degraded print quality typically associated with characters printed at or near a fold. The enclosure comprises a container with a pivotally mounted spring-loaded lid with a gasket thereon, and a shaft disposed in the container for storing a roll of paper of selected width.
