A printing apparatus that enhances light transmittance of overhead projector (OHP) sheets while preventing any deterioration in printing speed. The apparatus can compare a divider assembly located between a printing unit and a printed paper tray. The divider assembly feeds print media selectively to an OHP processing unit or to the printed paper tray. An OHP sheet printed in color is fed by the divider assembly to the OHP processing unit which prepares the sheet for OHP applications. An OHP sheet printed in monochrome is fed by the divider assembly to the printed paper tray without passage through the OHP processing unit.
