MPF section
The MPF has a sensor (MPF empty) which detects if paper is present. The motor (duplex/MPF) drives the MPF
pick assembly. The pick assembly feeds the paper from the MPF tray into the printer through the sensor
(MPF/pass ‑ through) and isolator nip at tray 1. The paper is then transported to the aligner roller.
Note: A clutch in the MPF keeps the motor (duplex/MPF) from picking paper when the duplex path is active.
