(3) Paper Loading from Multipurpose Tray (MT)
1. The release lever usually pushes down the hopping plate to a position to turn the micro
SW on (Figure 2.8-a).
2. The running of the motor in the (a) direction drives the MT feed roller, causing the cam to
turn. The cam pushes the release lever and the hopping plate picks up paper sent out by
the MT feed roller (Figure 2.8-b), where the registration roller Assy (B) does not move as
its one-way clutch gear (1) idles.
3. After the front edge of the paper turns the entrance sensor on, the paper is forwarded a
fixed length. The paper stops when its front edge reaches the registration roller Assy (B).
4. Concurrently, the cam pushes down the hopping plate. The release lever that has been
placed in its original position by the spring locks the hopping plate (Figure 2.8-c).
5. After the completion of the paper feed operation, the registration motor runs in the direction
of the arrow (b) to drive the registration roller Assy (B), where the one-way clutch gear does
not allow the MT feed roller to move.
