2.8.11 BY-PASS FEED TABLE
Feed Mechanism/Paper End Detection
The by-pass feed table uses an FRR feed system. The by-pass feed motor [A]
drives the rollers. The pick-up solenoid [B] drops the pick-up roller onto the top
sheet of paper, and the by-pass feed clutch [C] transfers drive from the motor to
the feed roller.
The by-pass paper end sensor [D] detects if there is paper on the by-pass feed
table.
When there is no paper on the by-pass feed table, the paper end feeler [E] drops
into the cutout in the lower guide plate and the paper end sensor deactivates.
When there is paper on the by-pass feed table, the paper pushes up the feeler to
activate the paper end sensor . The CPU turns off the paper end indicator on the
LCD panel and turns the start key from red to green.
