Abstract
A sheet feeder is disclosed which may be used as an auxiliary unit with a computer controlled printer. The feeder features a mechanical timing mechanism which effects a start-to-feed function in synchronism with printer platen motion and which is driven by a mechanical interface with a printer platen drive gear to sequentially and precisely position individual paper sheets in start-to-print position in the computer controlled printer with no requirements for electrical power, software or electronic logic.
