ABSTRACT:
A combined reader-printer apparatus operable in reader and printer modes one at a time for projecting an optical image of an original onto a viewing screen and reproducing the image on a photosensitive medium comprises first and second reflectors carried by a carriage in spaced relation to each other and a pivotable reflector pivotable between lowered and raised positions. These reflectors are so arranged that, when the apparatus is in the reader mode, the pivotable reflector is in the lowered position to reflect the image, which has been reflected by the first reflector, towards the screen, but when the apparatus is in the printer mode, the pivotable reflector is in the raised position to allow the image reflected by the first reflector to be guided towards the photosensitive medium by way of the second reflector. The carriage has a damper for absorbing any possible shock which would be generated upon contact with each of stoppers defining respective operative positions for the carriage.
