Feed Paper to Bins 2 through 10
If the Controller signals the Printer Engine Controller PWB to send the output to another Mailbox Bin, the
Printer Engine Controller PWB actuates the In Gate Solenoid, the Solenoid drops the In Gate, and the
paper path continues into the Mailbox. The IN Sensor, located at the input of the Mailbox paper path,
monitors paper arrival into the Mailbox. The Exit Rolls and the Pinch Rolls drive the sheet of paper to the
top of the Mailbox. Along the way, all of the Bin Gates remain closed except the BIn Gate of the
designated Bin. (In the example below, the output is destined for Bin 6.) The paper path moves past Bins
10 through 5. Bin 6 Gate Solenoid opens Bin 6 Gate and Bin 6 Roller drives the paper into Bin 6. The
Vertical Sensor monitors paper travel into Bins 2 through 10. An LED located at the top of the Bin Gates
shines light down through cutouts in each Gate and onto the Vertical Sensor that is located at the bottom
of the Bin Gates. When a sheet of paper enters any Bin, 2 through 10, the sheet breaks the light beam
and the Sensor signals the Mailbox PWB that a sheet of paper has entered a Bin. All Bins have a Full
Stack Sensor. The Full Stack Sensors monitors the paper level in each Bin and signals the Mailbox PWB
when the Bin is full.
1 Gate Solenoid (9 total).
2 Mailbox Control PWB.
3 Full Stack Sensor (10 on PWB).
4 Full Stack Actuator (1 per Bin).
