ABSTRACT:
A media roll supply assembly for a large document printer is disclosed which permits simplified loading and unloading of a media roll. Two end support assemblies are mounted in an axial alignment position. Each end assembly includes a spindle shaft, a hub assembly and a compressible spring. The media roll support core is seated on tapered surfaces of the hub assemblies; the compression spring allows one end to be urged outward so that, once fully seated against the hub member, one spring predominates and serves to maintain the roll in a precisely aligned axial position.
