6.14.11 PAPER REGISTRATION
Overview
The registration sensor [A] is positioned just before the registration rollers [B].
When the paper leading edge activates the registration sensor, the registration
motor is off and the registration rollers are not turning. However, the upper relay
roller (or LCT relay roller for feed from the LCT) [C] stays on for a bit longer.
This delay allows time for the paper to press against the registration rollers and
buckle slightly to correct skew. Next, the registration motor energizes and the
upper relay motor re-energizes at the proper time to align the paper with the image
on the drum. The registration and relay rollers feed the paper to the image transfer
section.
The registration sensor is also used for paper misfeed detection, and the LCT relay
sensor [D] detects jams at the LCT roller.
