2.3 PAPER TRANSPORT
2.3.1 PAPER HANDLING
When the paper has passed the registration sensor (of the copier) and a
predefined time (not adjustable) has elapsed, the tray motor [A] starts and the
junction gate solenoid [F] turns on. The tray motor drives the exit rollers [C] and the
junction gate solenoid opens the junction gate [E].
The junction gate feeds the leading edge of the paper upwards [D]. The paper,
transported by the exit rollers of the copier, travels up to the exit rollers of the 1-bin
tray base unit. The exit rollers transport the paper to the one-bin tray [B]. When the
last sheet of paper has been output, the tray motor stops and the junction gate
solenoid turns off.
2.3.2 JUNCTION GATE
The junction gate is kept open (the junction gate solenoid remains on) under either
of the following conditions:
• Condition 1
a) The copier is executing single-sided printing.
b) The copier is outputting two sheets of paper or more.
• Condition 2
a) The copier is executing duplex printing.
b) The copier is outputting the last two sheets of paper.
2.3.3 PAPER-SIZE LIMITATION
The 1-bin tray unit does not have any limitation on paper size. The 1-bin tray unit
can handle all paper sizes that the copier outputs. However, it cannot handle very
thick paper, so the bypass tray cannot feed to the one-bin tray.
