Record material feed apparatus for use with a printing machine of the type including a platen, means for rotating the platen about its axis, at least one roller, a lever capable of manual movement between first and second positions, and means coupled between the lever and the roller for maintaining the roller in engagement with the platen when the lever is in its first position and for maintaining the roller spaced a predetermined distance from the platen when the lever is in its second position. The feed apparatus comprises a drive assembly capable of engaging and, when enabled, feeding a marginally punched record material that is loaded thereon, a guide rack coupled to the drive assembly and capable of manual movement between a first position in which a record material may be loaded onto the drive assembly and a second position in which a record material fed by the drive assembly may be guided along the guide rack, and means coupled to the guide rack and capable of engaging the lever when the feed apparatus is mounted to the printing machine for automatically moving the lever from its first position to its second position when the guide rack is manually moved from its first position to its second position, and for automatically returning the lever to its first position when the rack is manually returned to its first position.
