Mechanical construction
(1) Paper feed section
The paper feed section consists of the cassette feed section which feeds from the paper cassette and the
MP tray feed section which feeds from the MP tray.
(1-1) Cassette paper feed section
The cassette can 300 sheets paper (64g/m2) or 250 sheets paper (80g/m2). As for the paper feed from the
cassette, paper is pulled out by the pickup roller rotation and conveyed to the paper conveying section by
the feed roller rotation. Multi-feeding is also prevented by the effect of the retard roller.
The fed paper is conveyed by the middle roller to the position where it turns the registration sensor on.
