B. Brief descriptions of operations
This machine allows two ways of paper feed system: cassette paper
feed and manual paper feed.
The cassette of universal type is employed to hold 250 sheets. The
front loading system allows to attach or detach the cassette from the
front of the machine.
Paper size can be selected by the user.
Paper size detection is set by the software. (User setting is allowed.)
By installing the optional 1-step paper feed unit or the multi-step
paper feed unit, the capacity of paper can be increased.
(1) Cassette paper feed operation
Select the cassette and press the START button, and the paper feed
roller solenoid will be turned on and the paper feed clutch will be
released.
The drive power of the main motor is transmitted through the paper
feed roller clutch to the paper feed roller, rotating the paper feed roller
and feeding paper.
