The document transport portion of the first belt is disposed adjacent to the document transport portion of the second belt. The second end of second belt is twisted approximately 180° in relation to the first end of the second belt. A document transport path is defined by the document transport portions of the first and the second belts. The document transport path has an inlet and an outlet. The outlet of the document transport path is twisted approximately 180° in relation to the inlet.
