Paper End Detection

If there is some paper in the paper tray, the paper stack raises the paper end feeler [A] and the paper
end sensor (S2) [B] is deactivated.
When the paper tray runs out of paper, the paper end feeler drops into the cutout [C] in the tray bottom
plate and the paper end sensor (S2) is activated.
When the paper tray is drawn out with no paper in the tray, the paper end feeler is not caught in the
paper tray due to its shape.
