Abstract:
1. An apparatus comprising: a pick tire configured to pick a sheet from a stack; a power train operably coupled to the pick tire to drive the pick tire, the power train including a gear that translates based upon a presence or absence of a sheet in engagement with the pick tire and based on a transmission of force to the pick tire; and a media stack stop movable between a media path intercepting position and a withdrawn position, wherein movement of the stack stop between the intercepting position and the withdrawn position is dependent upon positioning of the gear, wherein the media stack stop is configured to be in the media path intercepting position during rotation of the pick tire and wherein the gear translates during driving of the power train while the media stack stop is in the media path intercepting position and while a rotational axis of the pick tire is not translating.
