A transition module adapted to accept copy sheet input from an input feeder short edge first and feed the copy sheets long edge first to the main paper path of a processing apparatus. The transition module includes a belt-on-belt transport (65,67) to move copy sheets into the transition module from, for example, the output of a third party feeder. The sheets are fed to the belt-on-belt transport (65,67) and driven against a registration edge (63). The belts are continuously running and provide enough drive force to move the sheets to the registration edge (63), but not enough to overdrive the sheets or cause buckling. Once each sheet is registered, double 'D' rolls (70-73) are activated for one revolution to pull the sheet from the belts (65,67) and feed it to an exit nip located downstream from the 'D' rolls (70-73). <IMAGE> |
