BASIC OPERATION

2.3 BASIC OPERATION
The mailbox is connected to the main unit with
a 10-pin connector.
When the leading edge of the paper activates
the exit sensor in the printer's main body, the
mailbox main motor turns on and the mailbox
rollers begin to turn. The paper is then fed out
to the tray that has been selected.
Solenoids [B] open and close junction gates
as shown, to direct the paper to the selected
tray. When the top tray (tray 4) [A] is selected,
none of the solenoids are activated. When the
last sheet is fed out and turns off the vertical
transport sensor, both the mailbox motor and
the junction gate solenoid of the selected bin
turn off.
The mailbox normally feeds paper at the same
speed as the printer: 62.5 to 185 mm/s. (The
mailbox is capable of feeding paper at 62 to
260 mm/s.)
Junction gate solenoid 4 [C] controls the
junction gate [D] of the printer to direct paper
either into the mailbox or to the standard output
tray.
