PAPER FEED
B234/B235/B236/D101/D102/D103 6-116 SM
Pick-up and Feed
If a paper feed station is not selected, its separation roller solenoid [A] de-activates.
When the paper feed station is selected and the start key is pressed, the paper
feed motor, grip motor, separation roller solenoid, and the pick-up solenoid [B] all
turn on.
Paper feed motor: This rotates the feed roller [C], and the pick-up roller [D] linked
to the feed roller by an idle gear [E].
Grip motor: Rotates the grip roller and separation roller [F].
Separation roller solenoid [A]: When this solenoid turns on, the separation roller
[F] contacts the paper feed roller [C].
Pick-up solenoid [B]: When this solenoid turns on, the pick-up roller [D] lowers to
contact the top sheet of the paper stack and sends it to the nip of the paper feed
and separation rollers.
When the paper feed sensor [G] detects the leading edge of the paper, the pick-up
solenoid de-energizes to lift the pick-up roller. The grip motor turns on and the grip
roller and the transport roller pull the paper out of the tray and feed it into the
vertical feed path.
