3. 2nd and Subsequent Sheets
The Finisher Controller PCB turns on the Belt Escape Solenoid (SL7) before the trailing edge of the 
second and subsequent sheets have moved past the Feed Roller 2 to make the Feed Belt escape. 
This operation is performed to reduce the time it takes for the trailing edge of the paper to fall on the 
Stapling Tray, and to improve the duty cycle. 
The Finisher Controller PCB turns on the Paddle Solenoid (SL5) as soon as the trailing edge of the 
second and subsequent sheets have moved past the Feed Roller 2, causing the drive of the Second 
Feed Motor (M8) to rotate the Paddle. The sheets are pushed by the Paddle and moved to the Stapling 
Tray.
Almost simultaneously with the trailing edge of the sheet falling into the Stapling Tray, the Belt Escape 
Solenoid turns off to return the Feed Belts that were in the escape position to its original position, and 
feed the sheet onto the Stapling Tray. When the sheet has been output onto the Stapling Tray, the 
Finisher Controller PCB rotates the Alignment Motor (M3) to put the sheets in order.
