When a print job starts with the bypass specified as the feed source:
The bypass paper feed motor switches on and rotates the pick-up roller [1] and paper
feed rollers [2].
The bypass paper feed clutch [3] activates and raises its pawl [4]. This releases the
pick-up roller and allows it to rotate.
When the pick-up roller, a half roller, rotates through its arc of 180 degrees it picks up
one sheet of paper and pulls it out of the tray.
A rubber friction pad [5] below the pick-up roller provides enough resistance to stop any
sheet other than the one in contact with the pick-up roller from double feeding.
Once the pick-up roller completes its arc of rotation (as shown above), the pawl [4] of
the paper feed clutch [3] locks the pick-up roller and will not release it until the next
sheet feeds.
However, the clutch allows the paper feed rollers [2] to continue to rotate and feed the
sheet out of the bypass tray.
