2.1.6 PAPER OVERFLOW DETECTION

Standard Output Tray
[B]
[A]
G035D007.WMF
The standard output tray can stack about 500 sheets. There is a paper limit sensor
[A] to prevent paper overflow.
When the tray is full, the paper stack pushes up the feeler [B] then the paper limit
sensor is activated. When the sensor stays activated for a certain time, the
machine determines that the standard tray is full. The machine stops printing until
the paper limit sensor is deactivated.
Bridge Unit
[A]
G035D008.WMF
The bridge unit has a paper sensor [A] to detect paper. This sensor is monitored to
ensure that the bridge unit does not contain more than 250 sheets. If a print job of
more than 250 sheets is executed, the machine will print up to 250 pages, then the
print job stops. Once the output stack is removed, the printing job automatically
continues from where it let off.
