CHAPTER 2 OPERATIONS
2.
Stacking Sheets for the Processing Tray
a.
Handling the First Sheet
The tray auxiliary plate is outside the machine before the first sheet moves past the delivery roller.
(It, however, may be inside the machine under certain conditions.)
The swing guide moves up when the trailing edge of the sheet moves past the sort delivery sensor
(PI4), releasing the sheet from the stack delivery roller.
Then, the paddle taps on the top surface of the sheet, and butts the trailing edge of the sheet
against the processing tray stopper. The paddle rotates in numbers determined by paper size and the
number of sheets contained in the stack. (Usually, it rotates two to three times.)
The stack delivery roller starts to rotate in reverse in keeping with the rotation of the paddle to
assist butting the sheet against the stopper.

b.
Handling the Second and Subsequent Sheets
When the trailing edge of the second and subsequent sheets moves past the delivery sensor, the
paddle starts to tap the top surface of the sheet, butts its trailing edge against the processing tray
stopper, and deposits it on top of the existing stack. The tray auxiliary plate remains outside the
machine.
