2.2 FEED IN AND EXIT MECHANISM
When paper is fed into duplex unit:
As soon as the paper arrives from the interchange unit, it is sent to the inverter
section [C] (the inverter gate solenoid [A] remains off during this process).
The inverter section can hold a sheet of paper up to A3 size. Because of this, the
cover guide used in the previous model has become obsolete and has been
eliminated from the design.
Inversion and Exit:
Shortly after the trailing edge of the paper passes the entrance sensor [G], the
inverter gate solenoid [A] switches on and the inverter gate [B] switches over to
direct the paper to the exit path [E]. The inverter roller [D] then changes its rotation
direction and the paper goes to the exit transport area [F]. The paper is then sent
to the registration rollers in the main copier via the transport rollers.
