ABSTRACT:
The invention relates to an apparatus for diverting a sheet having a leading edge to a first position or a second position. The apparatus comprises a first roller, a second roller, a third roller, a fourth roller and a diverter assembly. The first roller has segments separated by first gaps. The second roller has segments separated by second gaps. The second roller segments form incoming nips with the first roller segments. The third roller has segments separated by third gaps. The third roller segments form first exit nips with the first roller segments. The fourth roller has segments separated by fourth gaps. The fourth roller segments form second exit nips with the second roller segments. The diverter assembly has diverter segments positionable within at least one of the first gaps, the second gaps, the third gaps and the fourth gaps. The diverter assembly is for directing the leading edge of the sheet from the incoming nips to the first exit nips or the second exit nips.
