[ 5 ] Separation of paper
This model is equipped with a separation roller which works to prevent multiple paper feeding. The
separation roller is pushed to the paper feed roller by the spring force.
When two or more sheets of paper are fed, since the friction between two sheets of paper is smaller
than that between a sheet and the separation roller, the lower sheets are not transported any further
while the uppermost one is transported by the paper feed roller.
