A feed system for feeding solid ink sticks, the system including a feed channel having a longitudinal dimension between an insertion end and a melt end, a push block element for moving one or more ink sticks along the feed channel from the insertion end to the melt end, and a tension element. The tension element is attached to the push block element so that the tension element urges the push block element toward the melt end of the feed channel and when the tension element is urging the push block element, the tension element is positioned substantially to one side of the feed channel.
