Paper feed/separation
The paper tray uses a friction pad [A].
A compressed spring [B] pushes the friction pad from the bottom, giving constant
pressure to the sheet of paper against the paper feed roller [C].
The paper feed roller feeds the separated sheet to the relay rollers, which then
feed the sheet to the registration roller. When the registration sensor detects the
sheet, the machine feeds the paper another 28 mm, then the relay roller clutch is
disengaged to stop the paper.
