A dunnage conversion system includes a machine for converting a stock material into a strip of relatively lower-density dunnage, a coiling mechanism for winding the strip into a coil, a taping mechanism for automatically securing a trailing end of the strip to the coil, and a coil ejecting mechanism for automatically removing the coil from the coiling mechanism. The taping mechanism includes a guide surface between an outlet of the machine and the coiling mechanism to guide the strip to the coiling mechanism and to guide tape for engagement with a trailing end of the strip and to secure the trailing end of the strip to the coil. The coil ejecting mechanism includes a lever arm that pivots to push the completed coil off the coiling mechanism.

Various embodiments illustrated herein disclose a printing apparatus comprising a media supply spool configured to supply print media along a media path. The printing apparatus further comprises a first media sensor positioned in a first plane in the printing apparatus. Further, the printing apparatus comprises a second media sensor positioned in a second plane in the printing apparatus. Additionally, the printing apparatus comprises a first media guide defining a section of the media path, wherein extremities of the first media guide are positioned to be at a negative offset from the second plane.

A sheet feeding apparatus includes a drawer unit having a sheet supporting portion, a feeding roller to feed the sheet, a conveyance roller pair, and first and second conveyance guides. An abutment surface, formed integrally with the first conveyance guide, abuts against the sheet and guides the sheet toward the drawer unit. The abutment surface is inclined upstream from a downstream side in a sheet feeding direction toward a downstream side from an upstream side in a drawing direction and overlaps with the second conveyance guide when viewed in the drawing direction.

This disclosure relates to an open banknote path system (200). The system comprises a first banknote path plate (207) and a second banknote path plate (208) coupled to a frame (210), wherein the first banknote path plate (207) and the second banknote path plate (208) are disposed a distance apart, a banknote path (202) disposed in a space between the first banknote path plate (207) and the second banknote path plate (208), wherein each of a first side and a second side of the banknote path open to an area wider than a central portion (204) of the banknote path, and a plurality of rollers (212) each coupled to one of the first banknote path plate (207) and the second banknote path plate (208), wherein each one of the plurality of rollers (212) forms a banknote pinch point with another one of the plurality of rollers (212).
