摘要： An imaging media tray includes at least one adjustable guide operatively connected to an interior surface of the imaging media tray. The guide divides the interior of the tray into a loading section and an unused section. A blocking mechanism is secured in the unused section of the media tray to prevent a user of the tray from loading imaging media into the unused section of the tray. The blocking mechanism can be provided as an adjustable blocking element with a an expandable and contractible mechanical blocker connected between the at least one adjustable guide and an interior wall of the tray. Illustrated embodiments show the blocker as a telescoping member and as a pivoting cross member arrangement.
