Front paper sensor
Front paper sensor detects TOF position as well as paper presence condition. It uses a
photo interrupter system. However, one end of the detecting lever is mechanically used to
detect the leading edge of the paper, and the other end is to cut in between the photo
interrupter sensor to detect paper. The output signal is pulled up to 10 K
the CPU port via the filter circuit which consists of the resistor and the condenser.

Right/left PEW sensor
Right/left sensors are located on the left and right column direction with the CR on the
mask guide in between. They don't only detect paper but the paper width so as to
determine the right and left margins. The output signal is output to the CPU A/D
converter.
