Typewriter roller (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

platen

'typewriter roller' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for platen that I've seen before include "One working in the press" , "Roller against which typewriter keys strike - ten lap (anag)" .)

I've seen this clue in The Wall Street Journal.
