2.1.3 PICK-UP AND FEED
When a paper feed station is not selected:
•
Separation roller solenoid [A] is de-activated
•
Separation roller [B] turns freely.
When the paper feed station is selected for a job:
•
Paper feed motor [C] and grip motor [D] turn on.
When the feed motor [C] turns on, it drives the feed roller [E]. It also drives the
pick-up roller [F] because the pick-up roller is linked to the feed roller by an idle
gear..
When the separation solenoid [A] turns on, the separation roller [B] contacts the
paper feed roller [E] and turns with the feed roller, unless more than one sheet of
paper is fed. The three trays of the LCT unit use the standard FRR mechanism.
When the paper feed motor turns on, the pick-up solenoid turns on and the pick-up
roller [F] lowers until it contacts the top sheet of the paper stack and then sends it
to the paper feed and separation rollers.
When the paper feed sensor detects the leading edge of the paper, the paper feed
motor switches off, the pick-up roller lifts, and the grip rollers [G] feed the paper out
of the tray.
