burster
burster A mechanism for separating continuous fan-folded paper used in line printers and some page printers into separate sheets. Frequently it also performs the function of separating out interleaved carbon and sorting the multicopy output into sets. It may also trim the edges to remove the sprocket holes and the ragged edge left by the perforations between sheets. Generally this is done offline but some versions can be linked directly to the output printer.
