When a paper misfeed occurs between the vertical transport rollers and the
registration rollers, the lower paper guide plate [A] automatically opens.
When the registration sensor is not activated at a certain jam check timing,
the guide plate solenoid [B] turns on. The lever [C] raises the lock lever [D] on
the guide plate to release the pin [E] on the rear side frame. Then, the guide
plate falls open.
The actuator [F] on the guide plate activates the guide plate position sensor
[G] when the guide plate opens.
To prevent the guide plate from being left open, if the guide plate position
sensor is activated, copying is prohibited and a caution guidance is displayed
on the LCD panel.
