CHAPTER 8 PAPER DECK
2. Paper Level Indicator on the Deck front Cover
The drive of the deck lifter motor (M102) is received by a coupling, and is transmitted to the
rack by means of a drive belt. The rack is equipped with a black belt which moves up and down
behind the indicator window in the deck front cover in keeping with the movement of the rack.
When the copy paper starts to run out and, as a result, the lifter moves up to the pick-up
position, the area of the black belt within the indicator window increases gradually, replacing the
white area and thereby indicating the level of copy paper.
