Exiting operation

• The Paddle, driven by the Paddle Motor, makes the Swing Guide move down and then
the paper is taken up with the Upper, and Lower Exit Arm.
• Next, the Exit Motor rotates in the forward direction to transport the paper taken up with
the Exit Rollers toward the Exit Section by the Exit Rollers and the Exit Arm.
• The Exit Belt Home Position Sensor turns OFF and then the Swing Guide moves up after
the Motor has been driven for a given number of pulses. The Exit Motor is driven to trans-
port a stack of paper with the Exit Arm, of the Exit Belt, rotating in synchronization with
the Lower Exit Roller onto the 1st Paper Exit Tray.
