CHAPTER 2
V. PICKUP/FEED SYSTEM
A. Outline
The printer is equipped with two pickup sources, the multi-purpose tray and manual feed slot.
Whether or not the multi-purpose tray and the manual feed slot are loaded with paper is detected by the paper-out
sensor (PS003).
The main motor (M001) starts rotating after about 0.5 seconds from the time the engine controller receives a pickup
command from the interface controller.
When the printer enters an initial rotation ready state (See Note), the pickup solenoid (SL001) is turned ON for 0.5
seconds. The main motor rotates the pickup roller, and the pickup roller’s rotational force moves the pick cam. When
the claw of the pickup cam is unhooked from the lifting plate, the plate is lifted by the spring force with print paper on
it. A sheet of the paper is picked up by the pickup roller and fed to the printer. The paper pickup timing is the same for
the multi-purpose tray and the manual feed slot. If both of the pickup sources are loaded with paper, priority is given to
the manual feed slot.
