Sheet feeding apparatus for feeding sheets from an input station (4) to an output station (34) comprises selectively actuable stripper mechanism (8) for feeding single sheets from the input station to continuously operable transport mechanism (9,17) which feeds the single sheets to the output station. Sheet detection apparatus (not shown) is provided for checking one or more characteristics of the sheets fed by the stripper mechanism. The arrangement is such that if the detection apparatus detects the presence of a bad or unacceptable sheet, the stripper mechanism is stopped while the transport mechanism transports the bad sheet to the output station. |
