1. A media recycler or dispenser, comprising:
an intermediate transport module;
a lower transport module;
sensors to provide alignment data relevant to whether the intermediate transport module is aligned with the lower transport module;
a motorized latch affixed to the lower transport module; and
a processor coupled to the sensors to:
determine from the alignment data whether the intermediate transport module is aligned with the lower transport module or not; and
control the motorized latch to move the lower transport module into alignment with the intermediate transport module based on the alignment data.
