ABSTRACT:
A printer device has first and second print media paths to carry paper from a sheet pickup mechanism to the printer device and then to a sheet exit opening. A third print media path carries the sheet from the sheet exit opening back to the printer device for duplex printing. A sheet diverter has first and second operating positions for allowing the sheet to pass in the first flow direction and for diverting the sheet in a second flow direction toward the printer device. A sheet pickup mechanism has a first operating position for the mechanism to pick up the sheet from a sheet dispensing tray and a second operating position in which the mechanism is part of a duplex printing path when the sheet travels in the second flow direction toward the printer device.
