From the paper standby position:
• Only the roll paper feed motor [1] reverse feeds the paper from the paper standby position [2] (the
roll feed clutch stays off, so only the spool is reversing the paper, and not the roll feed roller).
• When the edge of the paper reaches the paper entrance sensor [3] (or after 5 seconds has
passed, whichever is first), the roll paper feed motor stops.
• Then, the roll paper feed motor reverses briefly with the clutch on. This closes the nip [4] between
the roll feed roller and its idle roller. So the next time paper is inserted, the nip is already closed.
• The operator then turns the roll by hand until the edge of the paper comes out of the machine.
