Abstract
A tray for holding a stack of media sheets for feeding into a printing mechanism is provided. The tray has a first media guide movable relative to a first wall of the tray in a first direction to vary a first spacing therebetween for accommodating different media sizes in the first direction. The tray also has a second media guide manually adjustable relative to a second wall of the tray in a second direction to vary a second spacing therebetween for accommodating different media sizes in the second direction. The second direction is substantially perpendicular to the first direction. Furthermore, the movements of the first guide are synchronized with movements of the second guide so that adjustment of the first guide is automatically achieved through the manual adjustment of the second guide.
