Rear Fence Drive Mechanism
When the paper end sensor [A] in the left tray detects paper but the paper end
sensor in the right tray detects a paper end condition, the rear fence drive motor [B]
(a dc motor) in the left tray turns counterclockwise to drive the rear fence [C] to
push the paper stack into the right tray.
When the actuator on the rear fence activates the return position sensor [D], the
rear fence drive motor turns clockwise until the actuator activates the rear fence
home position sensor [E].
The whole process takes about 5 seconds.
