2.3.5.3 Paper Feed Control Circuit
The paper feed mechanism of this printer is driven by the paper feed motor. The paper feed motor is
controlled by a gate array
(IC3A:
E05A1 5HA) and the CPU. Figure 2-43 shows the paper feed motor
drive circuit block diagram.

Figure 2-43. Paper Feed Motor Drive Circuit Block Diagram
Figure 2-43, the paper feed motor drive voltage is controlled by PC7 from the CPU,
and phase switching is performed by the gate array (I
C3A).
The paper feed motor rotates in both forward
and reverse directions. Since the paper feed motor rotates in the reverse direction only for micro
adjustment or sheet load/eject, the paper feed motor cannot be rotated in the reverse direction by any
control codes.
