Intermediate feeding mechanism
This mechanism feeds the paper fed from the Cassette Assy to the paper feed
mechanism.
The intermediate feeding mechanism is driven by the ASF Motor.
The Middle Roller always rotates in a set direction (paper feed direction)
because of the Planet Gear, regardless of the ASF motor rotational direction.
