Ricoh FT9101 - Image Transfer and Paper Separation

2.6 Image Transfer and Paper Separation
2.6.1 Main construction
Structural diagram
Construction
The flex separation system. Transfer and paper dis-
charge by the transfer and separation discharge. An mis-
feed on the transport unit error is detected by a
reflective photosensor.
The transport belts are driven by the main motor through
the vertical transport drive.
After separation paper is held against the transport belts
by the suction of the vacuum fan.
The transport release spring is used to release the trans-
port unit.
The positions of the T/S corona and transport units are
separately maintained.
