ABSTRACT:
A paper tray (110, 210, 310, 410, 510, 610, 710, 810) for holding a stack of sheets of paper in a printer (540, 640, 740, 840) is provided. The paper tray includes an actuator (221, 421, 521, 621, 721, 821), which is moveable between an engaged position by insertion of the tray into the printer and a refilling position by at least partial removal of the tray from the printer. A paper supporting plate (230, 330, 430, 530, 630, 730, 830) is moveably coupled to the actuator. The paper supporting plate supports the stack of paper so that a sheet furthest away from the paper supporting plate is in a picking position available for picking by the printer, when the actuator is in the engaged position. The actuator is coupled to the paper supporting plate so as to move the paper supporting plate away from the picking position when the actuator is moved into the refilling position.
