Phaser 6130 Color Laser Printer Service Manual 2-19
Theory of Operation
Manual Feed & Registration
■ Manual Feed No Paper Sensor (Photo Sensor)
Detects presence/absence of paper in the Manual Feed Slot by the 
change in actuator position.
Upon detecting the sheet, the Regi Roller rotates for a predetermined 
duration to feed the sheet. The sheet is caught between the Rollers so 
that it may not fall from the Manual Feed Slot.
The Rollers stop immediately when the Registration Sensor detects the 
presence of paper.
■ Registration Sensor (Photo Sensor)
The Registration Sensor detects paper when the paper leading edge 
reaches the Registration Chute. When paper is fed from the Manual Feed 
Slot, the Registration Sensor measures the paper length. The On time of 
the Registration Sensor is converted into the paper length.
Note
On: The paper activates the Actuator.
