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 exit tray 1.
