A. Mechanism relation diagram
B. Operational description
The resist roller set controls the synchronization of the Image on the
Transfer Belt to the Timing of the paper making its way to the Primary
and Secondary Transfer section. Start stop movement is controlled by
the PS Clutch. Drive for the Registration roller comes from Main motor.

scanner sections.
MPWD Paper width detection sensor Detects the width of the paper.
PIN P-IN sensor Detects the entrance of the paper in front of the registration roller.
No. Name Function and operation
1 Resist roller (Drive) The Resist Roller (Drive) synchronizes the paper timing to the image on the Transfer Belt. A
buckle is created to eliminate any skew in the paper. The paper is then driven to the Transfer
section where the image is correctly timed for transfer onto the paper.
2 Resist roller (Idle) The Resist Roller (Idle) puts pressure on the back side of the paper allowing the Drive roller
to move the paper to the transfer section after proper buckle timing has occurred.
