Paper Eject - Brother HL 5030 - B/W Laser Printer Service Manual

CHAPTER 3 THEORY OF OPERATION
2.2.3

Paper eject

After the printing image on the photosensitive drum is transferred onto the paper, the paper is
fed to the fixing unit to fix unfixed toner onto the paper.
Afterwards, the paper is ejected from the fixing unit by the first eject roller in the fixing unit.
The paper eject actuator detects whether the paper is ejected correctly or not.
After the paper exits from the first eject roller, the paper is turned by the rear cover and
ejected face down into the top output tray through the second eject roller. If the rear cover is
open, the paper is ejected face up straight to the printer rear (straight paper path).
