Paper feed
The standard paper feed sources consist of a multi-paper cassette (Tray 1), a standard paper cassette (Tray 2),
and an MPF Tray. The paper feed system on the paper cassettes uses a separation roll/torque limiter to prevent
multiple feeds. The MPF, on the other hand, uses a separation pad.
Tray 1 and Tray 2
Tray 1 uses a spring loaded plate to engage the media in the tray with the pickup roller. Tray 2 uses a tray lift
motor to lift the paper to the paper feed mechanism.
Tray 1 holds approximately 150 sheets of 20lb paper and Tray 2 holds about 250 sheets of 20lb paper.
Tray 1 does not have automatic size sensing, therefore, the correct paper size must be set on the paper size
wheel located on the front right of the trays (see pictures below).
