Abstract

Abstract This specification discloses improvements in a copying apparatus of the type wherein an original to be copied is moved on a glass plate or the like while being pressed against the plate with the aid of a rotatable roller. The improvements consist in that the pressure roller is covered with a fur and spaced apart from the glass plate by such a distance that the covering fur imparts a light pressure to the original.
