  • BOARD SECTIONS FOR MEDIA COLLECTION
    Publication number: 20250222705
    Abstract: In an example, a media handling device (100) comprises a media catcher (110) defining a first media collecting width (112) along a lateral direction. The device also comprises a first board section (120) defining a second media collecting width (122) along the lateral direction, the second media collecting width exceeding and at least partially overlapping the first media collecting width, and a second board section (130), whereby the first board section is at least partially located between the second board section and the media catcher, the first and second board sections forming an apex (125) along the second media collecting width to support media. The device further comprises an abutment (140) at a distal end of the first board section away from the apex, the abutment being located between the first board section and the media catcher.
