Abstract: A paper catcher for a printer comprises a stand which may include a shelf, or supporting printer, a basically flexible duct forming an infeed chute and including lower flexible fingers for supporting the lower surface of the paper coming from the printer and a pivotal upper member for writing on the paper to prevent buckling. The paper then travels through a reversal chute and exits under the influence of a member riding thereon which overcome the natural tendency for the fan-fold paper to buckle upwardly instead of downwardly for depositing onto a paper collection tray mounted above and at an angle spaced from the printer so that the printer material may be read as it is being printed on the platen of the printer.

Abstract: An indicia display device including an outer casing having at least one opening or window. A non-planar guideway is provided within the casing and a sheet of flexible material is mounted for rotation within the guideway and conforms to the non-planar configuration of the guideway. The sheet carries indicia, such as numerals, words, or the like, which is disposed in a generally circular pattern about the axis of rotation of the sheet, and the window is located in alignment with the pattern of indicia. By rotating the sheet within the guideway, the indicia can be successively exposed through the window to the viewer.
