• Document front sensor which detects the presence of documents.
• Document rear sensor which detects the leading and trailing edges of pages to tell the control
circuitry when the leading edge of a new page has reached the starting position and when the
scan for that page is over.
• Top cover sensor which detects whether the top cover is closed.
• Sheet feeder cover sensor which detects whether the sheet feeder cover is closed.
• Registration sensor which detects the leading and trailing edges of paper, which allows the
controller to determine the registration timing and check paper jam.
• Paper ejection sensor which detects whether the recording paper goes out of the equipment.
• Toner sensor which detects whether there is toner or a toner cartridge is loaded.
• Toner thermister which detects the ambient temperature of the toner cartridge.
• Heater thermister which detects the temperature of the heater roller of the fixing unit.
• Hook switch* which detects whether the handset is placed on the handset mount.
These photosensors are a photointerrupter consisting of a light-emitting diode and a light-sensitive
transistor. Each of them has an actuator separately arranged as shown on the next page.
