Product Technical Overview
Launch Issue
Paper Transport from Tray 1
When tray 1 is selected the takeaway clutch, PL 40.10 Item 5, is energized, thereby transfer-
ring drive via a gear from the main drive motor, PL 40.10 Item 1, to takeaway roll 1, PL 80.55
Item 15. At the same time the tray 1 feeder is activated and paper is fed from the feeder into
the registration chute, PL 80.55 Item 2, and onwards to the registration roll nip via the take
-
away roll, Figure 3.

Refer to Paper Tray Elevation and Feeding: Trays 1, 2, 3 and 4 in the Paper Supply and Feed
section of this PTO for detailed paper feed information.
Paper Transport from Tray 2, Tray 3 and Tray 4 of the 3TM
When tray 2 is selected tray 1 takeaway roll is energized and the tray 2 associated takeaway
motor turns on, driving takeaway roll 2. At the same time the tray 2 feeder is activated and
paper is fed from the feeder onto takeaway roll 2. When the tray 2 feed out sensor detects the
lead edge of the sheet, the takeaway motor reduces speed, Figure 4.
Subsequent sheets in the same print job start feed after the trail edge of the previous sheet
passes the registration sensor, the timing being based on the feed pitch.
The takeaway motor stops when the registration sensor, PL 80.55 Item 4, detects the lead
edge of the final sheet in a print job.
The takeaway roll paper transportation for all configuration of tray 2 is the same it is only their
takeaway motors and gear trains that vary.
The figures that follow show the respective takeaway motor to takeaway roll 2 configurations:
• Tray 2 STM, Figure 4.
• Tray 2 1TM, Figure 5.
• Tray 2, 3 and 4, Figure 6.
When feeding from tray 3 or tray 4 of a 3TM, the takeaway motors of all the above paper trays
are energized and drive their associated takeaway rolls, Figure 6. At the same time the tray 3
or 4 feeder is activated and paper is fed from the feeder onto the associated takeaway roll (3 or
4). Trays 3 and tray 4 have no feed out sensors. The takeaway motors for trays 1, 2, 3 and 4
will stop when the registration sensor detects the lead edge of the final sheet in a print job.
Refer to Paper Tray Elevation and Feeding: Trays 1, 2, 3 and 4 in the Paper Supply and Feed
section of this PTO for detailed paper feed information.
