Paper feed
After the pickup operation, the paper feeds through the product and into the fuser.
1. The paper picked up from the cassette is fed to the registration unit as the pickup motor rotates.
The paper picked up from the multipurpose tray is fed to the registration unit as the pickup motor
rotates. The duplex model has the duplex feed clutch. The driving force of the pickup motor is
transmitted to the duplex re-pickup roller by turning on the clutch.
2. The registration shutter corrects the skew-feed.
3. When the TOP sensor detects the leading edge of paper, the DC controller stops the paper so that
the media sensor detects the type of paper.
4. The DC controller controls the rotational speed of the pickup motor to align the paper with the
leading edge of the toner image on the ITB.
5. The ITB motor rotates the ITB.
6. The toner image on the ITB is transferred onto the paper, and the paper is fed to the fuser.
