[2] Mechanisms
*1: Non-stack paper feed mechanism
The paper in the paper exit/conveyance section is fed to the
paper feed unit by the conveyance rollers. When the
trailing edge of the paper is completely inside the paper
feed unit, it is exited to the conveyance unit by the reversal
roller without being stacked. At this time, the paper is exited
from the trailing edge side, hence the face side and reverse
side are inverted in the conveyance unit.
