Driving power for the by-pass feed roller is provided from the main motor, via the paper feed
clutch and the by-pass feed clutch. The feed process begins when the by-pass feed solenoid
releases a latch on the by-pass feed clutch, enabling the by-pass feed roller to turn. At this time,
two cams on the by-pass feed roller shaft lift the by-pass tray, pushing the paper up against the
by-pass feed roller.
