The operational sequence of the cassette lift-up is as follows:
1. The lifter motor rotates and the lifter moves up.
2. When the cassette-media stack surface sensor 2 detects the stack surface of media, the lifter motor
stops.
3. The lifter motor rotates again to lift the lifter when the cassette-media stack surface sensor 1 detects
the stack surface and then lowers during printing.
When a cassette-media stack surface sensors does not detect the stack surface within a specified time
period after the lifter motor starts rotating, the DC controller determines a lifter motor failure and notifies
the formatter
Cassette multiple-feed prevention
In the cassette, a separation roller prevents multiple sheets of paper from entering the paper path. The
cassette pickup roller drives the separation roller through a sheet of paper.
The rotation of the cassette feed roller through the sheet drives the cassette separation roller. Because
it is equipped with a torque limiter, only one sheet is fed into the product.
