2.4.10.3 MP Cassette Paper Empty Detection
•
Two sensors are used in this machine: the Paper Empty Sensor detects a paper-empty condition, while
the Paper Near-Empty Sensor detects a paper near-empty condition.
Paper Near-Empty Detection:
•
A paper near-empty condition is detected as the paper is consumed and when the Near-Empty Lever
lowers to eventually block the sensor (L).
•
At this time, the MP Cassette Paper Empty LED starts blinking.
•
A paper-empty condition results when about 50 more sheets of paper are used after the near-empty
condition has been detected.
Paper Empty Detection:
•
A paper-empty condition is detected as the paper is consumed and when the Empty Lever lowers to
eventually block the sensor (L).
•
At this time, the MP Cassette Paper Empty LED lights up steadily.
