Abstract
An enlarged buckle chamber is positioned within an easily accessible, copy sheet transport path and used to compile sheets during fault cycle down in copiers/printers whenever sheets are prevented from reaching the output in sequence by jammed sheets. The user can then clear most jams by accessing the jam area plus the 'easy to reach' area where internally purged sheet are gathered, thereby avoiding having paper distributed all over the paper path.
