Abstract (en)

[origin: EP0332873A1] A printer with a printing station, a first feeding device for record carriers in the form of a continuous web (16), at least one second feeding device for record carriers in the form of single sheets (30) and delivery channels for the continuous web or the single sheets. Behind the printing station in the transport direction a deflector device (20) is arranged which guides the respective record carriers into the delivery channel appropriate to them. It comprises at least two folding deflector elements (36, 38) which directly at the exit of the printing station (12, 14) substantially extend over the width of the transport web for the record carriers (16, 30) and which are hinge-mounted on axes (40, 44) parallel to one another and at right angles to the transport web in such a manner that a first delivery channel can be opened between them and further delivery channels can be opened between one respective deflector element (36, 38) and a stationary guidance surface (52 or 50). More than two delivery channels can be actuated by different constellations of the deflector elements (36, 38). <IMAGE>
