Zusammenfassung:	In order to provide versatile and automated transferring of sheet stacks (S) to and/or from sheet printing systems an assembly of a sheet stack handling apparatus and a sheet stack transporting robot (200) is provided. The robot comprises a sheet stack support (230), a driving mechanism (206) for moving robot and a wireless signal emitter configured to emit an identification signal. The apparatus comprises a sheet stack support (120), an access door (112), an access door actuator for opening and closing the access door, a wireless signal receiver, and a controller configured for comparing the identification signal received by the wireless signal receiver to a print medium identifier prescribed by print job. The controller opens the access door if the identification signal corresponds to the print medium identifier. The sheet stack support of the apparatus is provided in a slideable tray which makes it accessible to both human operators and robots.
