2. MECHANISM DESCRIPTION
2.1 General Mechanism
The Multi-Purpose Feeder feeds the envelopes and paper into the printer by receiving the signal
from the printer, which drives the pulse motor inside the Multi-Purpose Feeder, and this motion
is transmitted to rotate roller-A and B. The envelope or paper is delivered from the separator into
the printer.
Once delivered into the printer, the envelope or paper is then controlled and fed through by pulse
motor (registration) of the printer.
2.2 Hopper Mechanism
The hopper automatically feeds the printer with the envelope or paper being set, one sheet at a
time.
After the envelope or paper is set in the Multi-Purpose Feeder, the pulse motor moves the
envelope or paper and a single envelope or paper caught by the separator is fed into the printer.
