1100-Sheet Feeder Assemblies - Xerox Phaser 6300 Service Manual

1100-Sheet Feeder Assemblies

The 1100-Sheet Feeder forms a base for the printer and adds two, 550-sheet, universal
trays. Control signals reach the sheet feeder by a single connection. The sheet feeder
is secured to the print engine with four screws located under Tray 2.
Major functional components of the optional 1100-Sheet Feeder are described below.
No Paper Sensor
Detects presence or absence of print media in the tray based on the position of the
Actuator.
Feed Rollers
When the Feed Solenoid energizes, the Spring Feed force engages the Gear Feed
and the Gear Idler Feed to turn and feed the paper from the paper tray. This
activates the Paper Pick Assembly. After completion of one turn, determined by a
cutout in the Gear Feed, the Gear Feed and the Gear Idler Feed are disengaged
stopping the paper Retard Roller. This allows one sheet to be fed at a time.
Turn Clutch
Transfers the drive energy from the main drive assembly to the roll turn assembly.
Paper Size Switch
Detects print media size and installation of the paper tray.
Feed Solenoid
Controls the operation (rotation/stop) of the Feed Roller Assembly by controlling
the rotations of the Gear Feed.
Turn Roller
The Turn Roller receives drive energy from the Drive Assembly through the Turn
Clutch and transports the print media out of the paper tray to the printer's
Registration Rollers.
