ABSTRACT:
A picker mechanism for a thermal printer for urging a dye receiver media sheet into a receiver transport path has a picker wheel with first and second portions and defining a mounting axis. The first portion has an outer traction surface parallel to the mounting axis, and the second portion has a tapered surface for generating a force for urging the dye receiver media sheet from the tapered surface toward the parallel outer traction surface. The picker mechanism compensates for the variability in how an operator loads the dye receiver media and corrects skewing of the media.
