ABSTRACT:
A sheet transport and aligning apparatus that engages with a sheet to shift the sheet laterally during forward transport of the sheet by a roller. The lateral shift brings the sheet into engagement with a light weight pivotal edge guide which aligns to the sheet to establish a line contact with the sheet as the sheet is driven by the conical drive roller. By continuing to drive the sheet, the sheet pivots with the light weight pivotal edge guide until the sheet is in cross-track and skew alignment.
