  • ROLLED-IN MEDIA DOOR
    Publication number: 20170190192
    Abstract: A printer housing has a media compartment covered by a roll-in door. A pair of door tracks is attached to the printer housing along left and right edges of the media compartment. The roll-in door has left and right edges, the door being captivated by the pair of door tracks at each of the left and right edges. The roll-in door being movable from a fully closed position that renders the media compartment substantially fully covered to a fully open position in which the media compartment can be accessed. In the fully open position, at least a portion of the roll-in door is contained within the printer housing.
