Abstract
A receipt or media storage and presenting device is described that allows for the storage of various media, such as receipts, slips, forms, labels, tickets, tags, etc. The receipts are introduced into the device by an adjacent printer. The web of the receipt enters the storage and presenting device through an entrance guide, and thereafter is stored within a rib-cage storage bin. The device can store various lengths of the media up to about twenty feet. The device is then caused to rotate through an angle transverse of the printer discharge direction, which angle is preferably 90 degrees. Thereafter, the web of material is discharged through the guide mechanism that has pivoted 180 degrees from an initial entrance position to a discharge position.
