6.6.1.6.3 Exit Path Switching Mechanism
The paper path is selected by energizing or deenergizing Path Switching Solenoid SL1, which results in
the Exit Path Switching Plate being swung down or up.
(1) Job Tray
The paper exit tray (Upper or Lower Exit Tray) is selected according to the setting made on the machine.
When the Lower Exit Tray is selected, the Path Switching Solenoid is deenergized a given period of time
after the Paper Exit Sensor of the machine has been blocked, thereby feeding the paper into the Lower
Exit Tray.
In the 2-sided copy mode, the paper fed into this unit is reversed (switchback) and fed back towards the
Duplex Unit. (The Path Switching Solenoid is deenergized if the Paper Exit Sensor of the machine is not
blocked within a given period of time after the switchback operation has been started.)
(2) Shift Tray
In the 2-sided copy mode, if the length of the paper being fed into this unit exceeds 150 mm, the Path
Switching Solenoid is energized after a given period of time after the Paper Exit Sensor of the machine
has been blocked to reverse the paper under the Exit Tray and feed it back into the Duplex Unit.
If the length of the paper being fed into the unit is 150 mm or less, the Path Switching Solenoid is
deenergized after a given period of time after the Paper Exit Sensor of the machine has been blocked to
transport the paper into the Exit Tray.
