The bottom plate rises against the bottom of the paper stack as guide rails raises the
bottom stack when the cassette is pushed into the printer.
The pressure of the bottom plate on the bottom of the stack keeps the top of the stack
at the correct position to feed the paper.
6.11.2 PAPER FEED
The paper feed motor [1] in the tray drives the feed roller [2]. The control board [3] controls
the operation of the feed clutch (not shown). This engages the shaft where the feed roller
is mounted. Then it rotates it at the prescribed times to feed paper from the tray.
A friction pad at the edge of the cassette below the feed roller does not let sheets double
feed.
