Scan control
Scanning of the image illuminated with the exposure lamp of the full rate carriage is controlled by changing the
feed speed according to the copy magnification.
The document sheet stopping at the scan feed reference position is then fed to the scan position when the scan
signal is sent from the main unit of the machine after the predetermined time lapse following the paper detection
at sensor (ADF registration). Upon receipt of the scan signal, the ADF feed motor assembly rotates in the normal
direction (CW direction) to drive the ADF transport roll assembly and the ADF registration motor rotates in the
reverse direction (CCW direction) to drive the ADF registration roll assembly, ADF feed-out roll assembly, and
ADF exit roll assembly. Each motor gradually accelerates up to the specified speed. When the document sheet
passes the scan position at the specified speed, the images on the document sheets are exposed by scanning
with the exposure lamp of the full rate carriage, and are read by the CCD image sensor assembly.
When the predetermined period of time has elapsed since the document sheet ceased to be detected by the
sensor (ADF pre-registration), the ADF feed motor assembly stops.
When the predetermined period of time has elapsed since the document sheet passed through the sensor (ADF
inverter), the ADF registration motor stops.
Inversion
In the inversion step, the document sheet is inverted at the inverter gate and fed to the ADF transport roll
assembly again. By thrusting the document sheet against the ADF transport roll assembly at rest, the skew of
the inverted document sheet is corrected.
This enables scanning of a duplex document.
When the predetermined period of time has elapsed since the document sheet passed the sensor (inverter), the
ADF registration motor starts rotating in the normal direction (CW direction) to drive the ADF exit roll assembly in
the direction opposite to the exit direction. Thus, the document sheet is inverted and fed to the ADF transport roll
assembly again.
When the sensor (ADF pre-registration) detects the document sheet, the ADF registration motor decelerates
until it stops.
The inverter gate is so designed that the document sheet fed toward the exit can pass through it smoothly. When
the trail edge of the document sheet has passed through the inverter gate, it closes the downstream document
feed path. Thus the document sheet is fed over the inverter gate up to the ADF transport roll assembly when fed
backward, thereby inverting the document sheet.
