Abstract
A media size sensing system includes independently moveable length and width edge guides, in a media tray, for positioning against orthogonal edges of media sheets. A linearly sliding sensor device is provided, and a single linkage connects the length and width edge guides to the sensor device, the single linkage providing a unique position indication that is a function of both length and width for a range of media sheet sizes.
