ABSTRACT:
A closure mechanism for a receiver sheet supply drawer of a reproduction apparatus having a receiver sheet supply drawer, such drawer being slidable to a first location for loading a receiver sheet stack in the supply drawer and a second location relative to the reproduction apparatus where receiver sheets may be fed in register from said supply drawer. The closure mechanism comprises a variable damping mechanism for damping the movement of the receiver sheet supply drawer from the first location to the second location to assure that the receiver sheet supply drawer approaches the second location at a speed sufficiently slow to prevent receiver sheet stack dishevelment irrespective of the initial speed of the receiver sheet supply drawer as it leaves the first location. When the receiver sheet supply drawer is in the second location, it is releasably latched at a predetermined accurate position in the second location.
