Abstract: A desk includes a compartment for a silent printer designed to prevent dirt and dust from entering it. The compartment is in the form of a drawer fitting closely into a stationary portion of the desk and includes of a bottom supporting the printer and a front panel, the front panel fitting closely into the opening of the stationary portion. The drawer is movable to the front of the desk while gliding on horizontal guides on the side walls and on a wheel attached to the front and moving along the floor. A blower with a filter is mounted on the outside of the desk and blows clean air into the compartment. A narrow slot in the desk top serves for passage of the printer output.
