Actions of Main Functional Components

4.2.1

Overview

• The Option offset tray is available as an optional unit for pagepro 4650EN/5650EN laser
printer. Offset output is enabled by mounting this optional unit to the top of the 500 Paper
Exit.
4.2.2

Transport motor

• This motor gives the driving force to the offset tray exit roller and offset tray exit roller
(driven), which transport the printed paper to the tray of the offset tray.
4.2.3

Offset motor

• This motor gives the driving force to the offset assy via the cam.
4.2.4

Exit tray route change solenoid

• This solenoid switches between the paper paths to the standard and offset tray paper
output trays. When the exit tray route change solenoid operates, the gate is operated by
the link gate pushed downward against the spindle of the exit tray route change solenoid.
Thus, the paper output direction is switched to the OCT paper output tray.
4.2.5

Offset tray control board

• A CPU is installed in the offset tray control board. This CPU receives instructions from
PRCB and information from sensors and switches, and controls the operation for trans-
porting the paper through the offset tray.
4.2.6

Offset tray rear cover switch

• This switch detects that the rear cover is closed.
4.2.7

Offset tray exit sensor

• This sensor detects the presence or absence of paper in the offset tray.
4.2.8

Media full sensor

• This sensor is located on the offset tray control board, and detects that the paper output
tray is full, using the actuator for media full sensor.
4.2.9

Offset sensor

• This sensor is located on the offset tray control board, and detects an offset operation,
using the actuator in the offset assy.
4.2.10

Offset tray exit roller (driven)

• This roller transports the printed paper sent out from the Fuser, to the offset tray exit
roller.
4.2.11

Offset tray exit roller

• This roller discharges the printed paper sent out from the offset tray exit roller (driven), to
the tray of the offset tray.
