Theory of Operation
Lead-edge Registration
When a sheet is fed from the Tray to the toner transfer section, the registration of
the sheet may not be correctly maintained due to misalignment of lead edges in
the tray.
To avoid this problem, the lead edge position needs to be aligned at the
Registration Rollers before the sheet is fed in front of the transfer belt, or in front of
the BTRs.
By thrusting the edge of the sheet fed out of the Main Paper Tray or Bypass Tray
against the Registration Roller that is locked, the lead edge position of the sheet is
corrected.
Before the Registration Rollers are energized, the paper is advanced from the tray
to the rollers. This process aligns the leading edge as shown in the following
illustration.
By pushing the edge of the sheet against the Registration Roller that is not turning,
the lead edge of the sheet is registered.
