Abstract
A thermal printer has a platen roller and a moveable print head. A paper guide is positioned for guiding a sheet receiver media to an entrance between the platen and the print head when the print head is in the nonprinting position. A capstan pinch roller is movable relative to a capstan roller to grip the dye receiver therebetween. The capstan roller meters the receiver in a forward direction along the paper guide prior to metering the receiver in a reverse direction not along the paper guide and again in the forward direction not along the paper guide. The receiver media travels along two different transport paths.
