11-2. Construction of the Original Size Detecting Sensor
The original size detecting sensors used in the system determine the
distance between the sensor and the original, which enables the detection
of originals with high image density (original density up to 0.8).
Each sensor has two LEDs (LED1 and LED2) and one photo receiver
(PSD).
Two types of sensor are used: the CD (crosswise) and FD (feeding
direction) sensors. Since the CD sensors are installed at a height different
from FD sensors, each type has a different setting distance as detailed
below.
CD sensors : Setting distance 124 mm
FD sensors : Setting distance 60 mm
