ABSTRACT:
A thermal printer employs a soft platen to enhance the quality of the printed results. The increased friction between the paper and the soft platen is overcome by interposing between the platen and the paper a flexible platen cover of Teflon.sup.R impregnated fiber glass fabric. The cover serves as a low friction barrier and also aids automatic loading of paper by funneling the advancing edge of the paper past obstructions in the paper path.
