6.11.2 PAPER FEED DRIVE
The feed/development motor [A] drives
the pick-up and feed mechanism of both
the upper and second paper feed stations
through gears and the paper feed
clutches [B].
When the paper feed clutch turns on, the
pick-up roller, paper feed roller, and
separation roller start rotating to feed the
paper. The paper feed clutch stays on
until shortly after the registration sensor
[C] actuates.
6.11.3 PICK-UP AND SEPARATION ROLLER RELEASE
MECHANISM
When the paper tray [A] is not inside the
machine, the separation roller [B] is
away from the paper feed roller [C] and
the pick-up roller [D] stays in the upper
position.
When the paper tray is set into the
machine, it pushes the release lever [E].
This causes the pick-up roller [D] to go
down and the separation roller [B] to
move up and contact the paper feed
roller.
