ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE Printing apparatus is disclosed which has a rotatable platen with a printing element in front of it and a reversible platen drive for rotating the platen upwardly or downwardly relatively to the printing element. The apparatus is operable to feed, from an upper hopper extending upwardly and rearwardly from the bottom of the platen, an unprinted sheet to the bottom of the platen and forwardly and upwardly to the front of the platen into printing position. A selector switch may be provided for selecting the direction of rotation of the platen after completion of printing so that its rotation upwardly moves the printed sheet upwardly and rearwardly toward the upper hopper and its rotation downwardly moves the printed sheet downwardly for sequential stacking in the lower hopper to collate successive printed sheets in their order of printing. A bail switch operable upon movement of the upper platen feed roll away from the platen may also be provided to cause the platen to rotate upwardly to move the leading edge of the unprinted sheet into printing position.
