Abstract
A device is described for automatically dispensing single sheets and the like, especially to an office machine. The device has a magazine in which stacks of single sheets can be inserted in freely selectable quantities and with freely selectable storage volume. A separating device is movable and positionable under control over the entire length of magazine in front of the ends of stacks. Stacks are immovably arranged in the magazine. The separating device engages between stacks and can be activated between stacks in order to pull one sheet off the selected stack and feed it to the office machine by transport means.
