5.3.2 Paper Feed Mechanism and Paper End Detection
This machine uses a feed roller and friction pad mechanism, with drive from
the main motor transmitted when the by-pass feed clutch [E] turns on. The
friction pad prevents all but the top sheet from feeding. Therefore, during
paper feed, the top sheet of paper is separated from the stack and fed to the
registration rollers.
Before placing the paper on the by-pass feed table, the user must lower the
by-pass feed table by using the lever [A]. This is to ensure that the paper is
placed between the friction pad [C] and the feed roller [D]. Then, before
starting to copy, it must be put back up to move the paper stack into contact
with the feed roller.
When there is no paper on the by-pass feed table, the paper end feeler [B]
drops into the cutout in the by-pass feed table and the by-pass feed paper
end sensor is activated.
