2.8 PAPER FEED

2.8.1 OVERVIEW

This model has three paper tray feed stations.
The 1st tray is the tandem feed tray. It can hold 2,000 sheets of paper (1,000
sheets x 2 stacks). It can be converted to a 1,000-sheet tray for larger paper sizes
with an optional kit.
The 2nd and 3rd trays are universal trays. They can each hold 500 sheets of
paper.
All feed stations use an FRR feed system. Rotation of the pick-up roller [A] drives
the top sheet of paper to the feed [B] and separation [C] rollers. These rollers then
take over the paper drive. If the pick-up roller feeds more than one sheet, the
separation rollers rotate in the opposite direction and prevent all but the top sheet
from passing through to the registration rollers.
