Abstract: A printer for creating specialty-sized prints includes a printing mechanism, a cutter mechanism and a slicing mechanism. A media web or sheet is fed into the printer and is advanced by a media advancement mechanism in a media advancement direction. The cutter mechanism cuts the media transverse to the media advancement direction. The slicing mechanism slices the media parallel to the media advancement direction. The slicing mechanism includes a cam positioned on a camshaft and a slicer module. The slicer module is positioned adjacent the camshaft and includes a contact spring operatively spaced from the cam and a blade operatively spaced from the media. The media is sliced when an actuation mechanism rotates the camshaft so the cam pushes against the contact spring of the slicer module, which biases the blade against the media.

Abstract: Apparatus for cutting an advancing strip of photographic paper into prints of different size along and across the strip. The apparatus includes devices that cut perpendicular to the edges of the strip upstream of devices that cut parallel with the edges of the strip. Other devices secure the paper in position while it is being cut.
