Abstract
Abstract A stand for a printer typically included with a computer installation characterized by side support walls which serve to position the printer at an inclined angle, where such reduces space requirements on the supporting surface and, at the same time, affords more effective viewing capabilities, both in contrast to the instance where the printer lies in a horizontal plane. Additionally, paper storage space is provided within the stand and a carrying provision affords ease in portability.
