The slide shows the motors involved in paper feed from the trays.

The by-pass motor is not shown here. We will see it a bit later.
ˆ
Each tray has a motor. The motor drives the pick-up, feed, separation, and grip
rollers at each station.
¾
The grip roller pulls the paper out of the tray and feeds it into the vertical
transport path.
ˆ
Pick-up and feed timing is controlled by two solenoids in each tray, except in the
bypass tray, where there is a solenoid and a clutch.
