2.2.3 Paper Feed from Opt. Feeder Unit
When the Pickup Clutch is turned on for a certain period of time, the Pickup Roller
rotates by 360 degrees to feed one sheet of paper into the Feed Roller 3. Then the paper
is fed into the printer.
OPT. FEEDER UNIT

Connects the Opt. Feeder electrically to the printer.
When the Opt. Feeder is installed in the printer, the printer detects it by an Unit
installation detection signal (/OP_SET).

Paper Sensor
A photo-interrupter sensor that detects whether the paper is loaded or not in the
paper cassette. The actuator works depending on whether the paper is loaded or
not, and the shield board on the actuator switches on/off the sensor.

the right side of the paper cassette is open or closed.
The printer detects that the cover is closed while the switch is pressed down by the
actuator of the cover.

not.
The printer detects that the cassette is installed while the switch is pressed down
by the back-end of the cassette.
