Bottom Plate Lift, Upper Limit Detection and Paper End Detection
When the tray is placed in the machine, the paper size detection sensor turns on
and the lift motor [A] is activated, lifting the bottom plate. The plate rises until the
upper limit sensor [B] detects the actuator [C] and stops the motor.
The maximum lifting time for the bottom plate is set at 13 seconds. If the motor lifts
the plate for more than 13 seconds, an error results and the motor is stopped. At
the same time, the paper end LED will be lit red. The error status can be cleared by
turning the machine on and off. The error will be recorded in the machine log but
will not trigger an automatic service call.
Error codes: 1-35 (first tray)
1-36
(second
tray)
The paper end sensor [D] contains a photosensor. When there is no paper
remaining in the tray, the actuator [E] drops through the opening in the bottom
plate [F], causing the sensor to detect the paper end condition.
