The feed is mounted adjacent to a printer (11) and has a pair of feed rollers (12) receiving individual sheets from a magazine (13). The feeder is driven by a motor through pulleys, and has a roller (39) mounted immediately behind a baffle plate (33) fixed to the front of the stack. The lever (31) is integral with the roller (39) through the link arm (32). The mechanism is controlled through an automatic switch (30) mounted near the lever. The feed rollers have conical portions to maintain the feed central on the roller.
