PAPER FEED OPERATION
When the paper feed solenoid is turned ON, the driving power from the main
motor is transmitted to the paper feed roller via the paper feed clutch, and the
paper feed roller rotates.
At the same time, the push-down cam rotates, and it lifts the tray. Paper on the tray
is carried into the printer by the paper feed roller.
The actual paper length is detected by the ON period (passage time) of the paper
feed sensor and the system speed. Then it is judged whether or not the detected
length is equal to the paper length designated by the controller.
STACK FEED PREVENTION MECHANISM
Fixed separation pad method is used in order to separate each sheet of paper and
prevent feeding the second sheet together.
