ABSTRACT:
A paper cassette having an improved finger may be provided. The finger may be constructed using a flange for pressing down on sheets of paper that are loaded on the upper part of a tray. The flange has a pair of shaft connectors each bearing a bore that can accommodate a shaft. A plate can be pivotally attached to the flange via said shaft. A second pair of shaft connectors are attached to the plate for engaging the shaft. A spring may be used to bias the plate against any papers stacked on the tray to restrain the papers from premature loading into the electrophotographic apparatus. In addition restraining rings may be used to prevent the shaft form disengaging either of the pair of shaft connectors.
