ˆ
These four sensors detect the amount of remaining paper. The mechanism is
explained in the manual.
ˆ
These sensors cannot detect when the tray is empty. When the tray is at the top,
the height sensor actuation status is the same for a full tray (the actuator is outside
all three sensors).

See the next slide for how paper end is detected.
