Paper detection
The DC Controller uses the Paper Sensor (PS1) to detect whether there is paper on the Pick-up Tray.
The Main Controller uses the Multi-purpose Tray Sensor (PS10) to detect whether there is paper on the Multi-purpose Tray.
"Check if paper size in the paper cassette and paper type settings are correct, then execute jobs" is displayed on the Control
Panel when either of Paper Sensor (PS1) or Multi-purpose Tray Sensor (PS10) detects paper stack.
Pickup is started even if paper is not detected by the Paper Sensor (PS1) or the Multi-purpose Tray Sensor (PS10). If the Top
Sensor (PS3) still fails to detect the leading edge of paper after two pickup retries, the Engine Controller judges that a misprint
due to no paper has occurred, and notifies it to the Main Controller.
