a) Outline
The ejection spur unit consists of a spur, a spur motor that moves the spur, a spur cam sensor, and an eject roller.

The spur must be moved up and down according to the selected media type and feed mode. The spur motor and
spur cam sensor are used to control the spur stop position.
- In case of manual feed from front
When the above mode is selected in the user mode, the spur moves to the upper limit position and then stops.
- Stop position depending on media type
To prevent the spur from damaging the media, the spur stops at a proper position according to the media type
selected in the user mode.
c) Eject roller drive
The drive power of the eject roller is transmitted from the feed roller via the drive belt.
