Side-Positioning Operation
The latch assembly moves by a distance corresponding to the width of the IP already de-
tected, thereby performing side-positioning operation.
During the side-positioning operation, as the IP is aligned against the side guide, the IP is
pushed into by two latches. Because a tension is applied by a spring to the two latches, they
are brought down when loaded, so that the IP is pressed with a fixed pressure.
This operation is executed twice, thereby determining an accurate horizontal position of the
IP.
This not only prevents contact of the IP with the side plate, but also determines the reading
position in the main-scan direction for the scanner unit.
Subsequently, the latch assembly moves to its home position and the IP stopper moves
down. MD2 is also activated to rotate the cam, so that the roller grips the IP and the side
guide is accommodated, thereby conveying the IP to the scanner unit.
