8.2.2 Interval Acceleration
The machine provides 3 types of secondary transfer speed (normal, 2/3 speed, 1/3 speed) to suit the type of paper
(material, weight) and the selected color mode. These speeds are in keeping with the image formation speed (276
mm/sec; if normal speed, 276 mm/sec; if 2/3 speed, 184 mm/sec; if 1/3 speed, 92 mm/sec).

Instead of relying on electromagnetic clutches, the machine's feeding system makes use of a number of drive motors
for finer control of interval acceleration, thus increasing the level of productivity. The rate of acceleration in response
to transfer speed at respective intervals is as follows:
