5. OPERATION
A. Intermediate conveyance roller separation control
1.
When printing continuously a large size paper (217 mm or larger) in the staple mode, the leading edge of the
2nd paper [4] gets to the intermediate conveyance roller [2] while in the switch back [1] of the 1st paper of
the 2nd and succeeding copies. To prevent this, release the pressure of the intermediate conveyance roller
and separate [3] the roller to get the 2 sheets of paper overlapped each other.
2. When the 2nd paper stops, the intermediate conveyance roller is pressured to convey the 2 sheets of paper
overlapped each other to the handling tray.
