PAPER FEED
G104 6-22 SM
By-pass Tray Feed and Size Detection
Paper Feed Mechanism
When the paper detection feeler [A] detects a sheet of paper, the by-pass solenoid
[B] unlocks the feed shaft stopper at the left end of the by-pass feed shaft [C].
The by-pass feed shaft has the feed roller [D] and two cams [E]. These cams move
the paper support plate [F] up and down. This pushes the sheets of paper against
the feed roller.
Paper Size Detection Mechanism
There are two paper side plates [G] on the by-pass tray. These connect with the
paper size sensor [H] through a rack-and-pinion mechanism.
