Abstract
A photocopying machine equipped with a variable magnification arrangement including a cassette containing large-size copy paper and positioned to permit lengthways transport of copy paper through the machine and a cassette containing small-size copy paper and positioned to permit sideways transport of copy paper through the machine. The cassettes comprise actuation elements which actuate different combinations of switches in a control circuit, which in response causes adjustment of positions of photocopying machine elements for production of photocopies of different magnifications and causes selective forwarding of copy paper of the required size from a cassette.
