Separation Roller Release
The separation roller [A] is normally away from the feed roller [B]. When the paper
feed station is selected, the separation roller solenoid [C] pushes the separation
roller up so it touches the paper feed roller.
This contact/release mechanism has the following two advantages:
• After paper feed is completed, paper sometimes remains between the feed and
separation rollers. If the feed tray is pulled out in this condition, this paper might
be torn. When the separation roller is away from the feed roller, the remaining
paper can be removed from between the rollers.
• When paper misfeeds occur around this area, the operator can easily pull out the
jammed paper between the feed and the separation rollers if the separation roller
is away from the feed roller.
