The by-pass unit uses a friction pad paper feed mechanism. The transport roller
gear in the main copier/printer drives the gear on the paper feed clutch [B] through
a series of gears.
When paper is placed in the tray, the paper end sensor [C] switches off. When the
Start button is pressed, the paper feed clutch [B] is activated and the paper feed
roller [A] feeds the paper one sheet at a time.
