Abstract (en)

[origin: WO9616353A1] A container (10) and a method of using the container for storing sheets of material, such as a photosensitive materials, enables individual sheets to be transported from the container (10) to an imaging unit (12) by a feed mechanism of the imaging unit. The container (10) fits within the imaging unit to provide a light-tight environment for the photosensitive material. The container includes a front ramp (20B) to guide sheets into the imaging unit and a back ramp (26B) to separate blocked sheets. The container also includes a clamping component to allow for the removal of a light-tight bag which encloses the photosensitive materials.
