Abstract
The printing device has, in addition to a line feeding device mounted upstream of the printing line to make the sheet advance incrementally, an extraction mechanism mounted downstream of the printing line in order to enable printing without smudging until the trailing edge of the sheet; the extraction mechanism including a couple of robber rollers and opposed pressure rollers having fine external teeth, which are selectively engaged, when the trailing edge of the sheet reaches a determined position, by means of cam driven levers.
