Compartment Block
Overview
This equipment has three decks: upper deck, middle deck, and lower deck.
Each deck can accommodate 2000 sheets of paper (80 g/m2).
Deck Opening/Closing Control
When the deck open switch is pressed, the lifter motor (M101, M201, M301) rotates and
the lifter starts to descend. When the lifter HP sensor (S111, S211, S311) detects the home
position of the lifter, the lifter stops and the deck open/close solenoid (SL102, SL202, SL302)
turns on to unlock the deck. The unlocked deck is pushed forward several centimeters by the
force of the spring. The unlock of the deck is delayed to fully press down the paper being fed,
and prevent the paper from being caught in traps such as a guide, and enable the additional
paper supply. If the pull-out sensor (S102, S202, S302) has been turned on due to a jam
or any other fault in the pickup block, the deck does not open until you open the deck left
front cover and remove paper. To close the deck, push the deck with hands to set it in the
equipment. The closing of the deck is detected by the deck safety switch (S108, S208, S308),
moving the lifter up to the pickup position
MEMO:
Deck opening/closing control is performed in the same manner for all decks.
