Abstract
A paper transport apparatus is illustrated which strips a single sheet of paper 16 from a stack 18 using a stripping roller 20 and cooperating fingers 22. The sheet of paper 16 is directed between the nip of a pressure roller 26 and a transfer roller 28. The transfer roller 28 is mounted on a drive mechanism 30 and is selectively positioned against a transfer drum 40 carrying an ink pattern by a cam 66, follower 72 and a spring 60 combination. The paper 16 is driven by the transfer roller 28 in contact with the drum 40 and discharged along a shelf 52 guided by a belt 50.
