摘要 For a printer system (38) having a thermal printhead or an inkjet printhead for printing images on receiver media, such as sheets of paper (14), a pick roller (18) for drawing at least on sheet of paper (14), and a cutter assembly (26) for trimming the printed paper (14a) to size, a roller system (5), to help remove chad (16) and trimmed media in thermal printer (38), which is known to cause paper jams and interfere with printing, is disclosed. The roller system (5) comprises a paper tray (7) configured to hold a supply of paper (14), or other flexible media. The roller system (5) further comprises a roller (12) and a tray cover (10). Roller (12), which is located in contact with the supply of paper (14), is configured to operate in connection with the actions of the pick roller (18). Tray cover (10) is positioned over the paper tray (7) and includes an aperture adapted to receive roller (12). Roller (12) rotates intermittently during the operation of the pick roller (18) and moves chad (16) toward a holding area (22).
