ORIGINAL TABLE FOR USE IN AN IMAGING APPARATUS OR THE LIKE

摘要

An original table for use with an imaging apparatus or the like of a type wherein an original to be imaged is held in position by suction is disclosed. The surface of the table having holes through which air is drawn to provide the suction is covered with a sheet of nonwoven fabric having a high air permeability and high light reflectance. The sheet of nonwoven fabric is selectively coverable by an overlay member made of a transparent material that can be selectively applied over and detached from the sheet of nonwoven fabric in the case a paste-up or the like is to be imaged.
