  • Page 688: Mixed Original Size Mode

    ORIGINAL SIZE DETECTION 4.3.2 MIXED ORIGINAL SIZE MODE This section explains what happens when the user selects mixed original size mode. Because this ADF is a sheet-through document feeder, the method for original document width detection is the same as when the originals are the same size, but the document length detection method is different.
  • Page 689 ORIGINAL FEED-IN MECHANISM 4.4 ORIGINAL FEED-IN MECHANISM 4.4.1 PICK-UP AND SEPARATION G564D109.WMF G564D505.WMF When the original is put on the original table, it contacts the original stopper [A] and pushes the actuator [B] out of the original set sensor [C]. When Start , is pressed, the pick-up motor [D] turns on and the original stopper cam [E] rotates.
  • Page 690: Original Skew Correction

    ORIGINAL FEED-IN MECHANISM 4.4.2 ORIGINAL SKEW CORRECTION G564D202.WMF This mechanism is the same as the skew correction used by the registration roller in the main machine. The feed motor and the skew correction clutch control the skew correction roller. Immediately after separation, the skew correction sensor [A] detects the leading edge of the original.

    ORIGINAL TRANSPORT AND EXIT 4.5 ORIGINAL TRANSPORT AND EXIT 4.5.1 SINGLE-SIDED ORIGINALS G564D104.WMF The transport motor drives the transport roller [A] and the exit roller [B]. When the leading edge of the original activates the interval sensor [C], the transport motor rotates the transport roller.
  • Page 692 ORIGINAL TRANSPORT AND EXIT 4.5.2 DOUBLE-SIDED ORIGINALS Shortly after the transport motor has been turned on, the inverter solenoid is activated and junction gate [A] opens. The original is then scanned and transported towards the reverse table [B].
