ABSTRACT:
A web feeding and handling system for feeding a two-ply web to a printer and winding one of the webs about a take-up spool and directing the remaining web into a cutter. The printer and web feed system are arranged in a housing having an access opening sealed by a door. The printer and a feed roller holder assembly are mounted upon a plate movable between a position enhancing access to the printer and supply roll holder to facilitate supply roll replacement and feeding the web into the printer, and a position placing the printer web output end closer boa cutter and a take-up assembly mounted upon the door and including a rotatable drive disk and a spindle support which support a removable spindle to wind up one web. A motor drive mounted within the housing engages the drive disk when the door is closed and is disengaged from the disk when the door is open. The supply roll holder receives and automatically aligns the web to prevent skewing. The supply roll is positioned as close as is practical to the web input of the printer providing the shortest practical feed path. A supply roll depletion sensor mounted upon the aforementioned swingable platform provides a signal when the supply roll nears depletion. A cutter is mounted on the door to automatically cut the printed ticket. A static charge brush discharges the web emitted from the cutter.
