The feed system consists of a document
setting section, a feed section and an eject
section. After fed by the pickup roller, the
documents are separated one sheet by
another by the separation roller and the
separation pad. The unit consisting of these
rollers is called the roller unit. The feed roller
feeds the document to the image reading
position and lastly the eject roller ejects the
document. These rollers are driven by the
feed motor and the gears.
To control the operation, the feed sec-
tion has a document sensor and an ADF
sensor, which detect the document by the
shift of the detection lever.
