18-4. Paper Empty Detection

(1) Metric Areas
D A paper empty condition in the 1st and 2nd Drawers is detected by 1st Drawer Pa-
per Empty Sensor PC101 and 2nd Drawer Paper Empty Sensor PC102, respec-
tively, installed in the paper take-up area of each drawer.
D When the drawer, with no paper loaded in it, is roughly slid out of the copier, the
Paper Empty Lever can hit against the Paper Lifting Plate. To prevent this from oc-
curring, the Paper Empty Lever is tilted in the direction of sliding.
