Print Transport through the Mailbox/Sorter
Reissue
Principles of Operation
Refer to Offset Catch Tray (OCT) for the finishing functions of this component.
Mailbox Configuration
NOTE: When this device is attached to the Digital Network Copier/Printer or the Digital Net-
work Printer, it operates as a Mailbox. The OCT is an optional accessory to the Mailbox.
For Mailbox bin outputs when working with the Printer mode, the user sends a print job to the
printer
. The bin addresses are programmed by the printer system administrator and stored in
the NVM associated with the IOT CPU PWBA.
The copies for the Mailbox bin are diverted into the Vertical Transport area of the Mailbox by
t
he OC
T Gate. At the appropriate bin level, a Bin Solenoid energizes to push a Bin Diverter
Gate (one gate per output bin) into the paper path. The selection of the Bin Diverter Gate is
made by the Sorter Control PWBA in response to control messages from the IOT CPU PWBA.
The appropriate Bin Solenoid is energized only as the copy enters the vertical transport area.
When the trailing edge of the copy passes the Bin Sensor, the Bin Solenoid deenergizes to
close the Bin Gate.
Jam Sensing
The Mailbox/Sorter has thirteen (13) sensors for detecting the leading and trailing edges of
copies:
• Decurler Exit Sensor
• Vertical Transport-In Sensor
• Ten (10) Bin-In Sensors (one for each bin)
• OCT Exit Sensor
Figure 2 shows the sensor locations.
Th
e IOT Machine Exit Sensor is also used by the Decurler PWBA or the Sorter Control PWBA.
