ABSTRACT:
This invention involves a control panel that is removable from a marking machine housing. This removable control panel is used to lower or raise the entire marking machine or just a module or modules of the machine. Wheelchair users have difficult times using a conventional marking machine such as a copier or printer. The user with the removable control panel can lower the entire machine so that access to all components is possible. In addition, the wheelchair user can raise the paper trays to be side by side with the processor module. It is important that the copier raise-lower function be on the control panel in addition to a control for horizontal movement of the module(s). Any other function can be put on the control panel.
