Abstract (en)
A compact and lightweight paper refolding apparatus which fits over the top of a computer printer so as to refold the paper into a neat stack with a minimum of desk space. The refolding apparatus is designed so that the computer printout exiting web of paper can be read and refolded in the same pattern as it had been folded in the stack on the supply side of the printer. This is accomplished by use of an L-shaped member (4) having a curved guide means (14) with a receiving edge (15), receiving the leading edge of the web of paper (3) exiting from the printer (1) and guiding it upwardly through a curved path and then downwardly onto a refolding surface. Since the base of the L-shaped member (4) forms the refolding surface, which is designed to fit directly over the printer (1), additional space for the refolding apparatus is not required and the computer printout is neatly stacked in the same fold pattern as had existed in the box or stack on the supply side of the printer.
