ABSTRACT:
A sheet sorting apparatus for depositing a sheet from a printer in one of a plurality of output trays. The apparatus has a pair of rollers that moves the sheet, leading edge first, out of the printer. As the sheet exits the rollers, it encounters a deflector. Depending on the position of the deflector, the sheet either moves into a first output tray or to a flipper assembly. The flipper assembly inverts the sheet so that trailing edge of the sheet exits the flipper assembly before the leading edge of a sheet. A continuous belt removes the sheet from the flipper assembly trailing edge first. Finally, a distribution head, which is movable along the continuous belt, is positioned adjacent to the one of a plurality of output trays prior to the arrival of the sheet. The distribution head then removes the sheet from the belt and directs it to the output tray.
