PAPER FEED
6.12 VERTICAL TRANSPORT MECHANISM
[A]

[C]
[D]
The vertical transport rollers [A] in each feed unit is driven by the paper feed
motor. The vertical transport rollers and the driven vertical transport rollers
[B], on the upper and the lower vertical guide plates, transport the paper from
each feed unit to the registration roller.
The upper [C] and lower [D] vertical transport guides can be opened to
access jammed paper in the vertical transport area.
The lower vertical transport guide separates from the upper guide to gain
wider jam removal space.
To reduce the first copy time, the paper feed motor rotates at a quicker speed
(430mm/sec.) than normal (330mm/sec). This quick rotation is performed
only in the case of the first copy from the first feed station.
