ABSTRACT:
A replaceable OPC-containing canister is provided for a drum in an EP apparatus, the drum including a canister-receiving receptacle. The OPC-containing canister comprises a housing which includes an elongated slot. An OPC web is wound around a spring-loaded mandrel within the interior of the housing and includes a distal end that extends through the elongated slot. An end attachment is coupled to the distal end of the OPC web and is spring biased against the housing by action of the spring loaded mandrel. The end attachment, upon insertion of the OPC canister into the canister-receiving receptacle in a drum, is positioned to engage fixed stops in the EP apparatus. Upon rotation of the drum, the end attachment thus bears against the stops, unrolls the OPC web from the canister and winds the OPC web about the external surface of the drum. Reverse rotation of the drum enables removal of the OPC-containing canister.
