● Detection Operation Overview
1) Standby state (The following is in case that the AB type, A4R size is set.)

3) ADF closed
CCD unit: in original detection position
LED: OFF to ON
Original sensor: in original detection operation
- With the ADF angle at 25 deg or less, the external light is blocked at the original width
area. Then, the machine determines that the original is absent at the points that the
external light is detected (external light search operation). When the original mount sensor
(rear) detects [close], original size detection is started. In this case, B5/B4/A4/A3 size is
eliminated at this point.
- After external light search, LED is turned ON at main scanning side and the CCD checks
the reflection light (4 points). For sub scanning direction, original sensor detects the size.

4) ADF fully closed (5 deg or less)
CCD unit: in original detection position
LED: ON
Original sensor: in original detection operation
- For 2 sec from the original mount sensor (front) detected [close], this monitors the
changes of output level of each sensor. The machine determines that the original is
present in the position where the level is not changed.
The machine identifies the original size by the combination of level changes at 5 points (in
case of AB type size).
