Abstract
A passive, aerodynamic document printing, staging, and presentation system substantially reduces the time required to print and dispense multiple narrow-format documents, allows staging of multiple documents, and reduces document jamming without the use of active mechanical staging and presentation devices. The system includes a roll-feed wide-format printer, a paper chute for dispensing a printed document, an element for advancing a document from the printer to the paper chute, and an element for holding at least one document emerging from the paper chute.
