3.9.5 SHIFT TRAY OPERATION: Z-FOLDED PAPER
Sensor  and its feeler [A] and actuator [B], and Sensor  with its feeler [C] and
flat actuator [D] control the movement of the shift tray when Z-folded paper is
output to the shift tray.
1. Z-folded paper is output to the tray.
2. As the height of the stack increases, this pushes up feeler [A] of Sensor .
3. When the actuator [B] of the ascending feeler enters the gap of Sensor , this
switches the sensor OFF and switches the tray lift motor ON.
4. The tray lift motor lowers the tray until the feeler descends far enough to raise
the actuator out of the gap of Sensor .
5. When the actuator leaves the gap of Sensor , this switches Sensor  ON,
switches the motor OFF, and stops the tray.
6. Steps 1 to 5 repeat until the top of the paper stack pushes feeler [C] up and
actuator [C] into the gap of Sensor .
7. When the actuator enters the gap of Sensor , this switches the sensor off and
switches Sensor  OFF, signals that the tray is full and stops the job.
