Bypass Feed Paper/ Separation Mechanism

The bypass paper feed mechanism employs an FRR system. The bypass paper feed unit comprises a
paper feed roller, reverse roller and pick-up roller.
When the paper feed tray is selected and the machine is started, the bypass pick-up solenoid is switched
OFF, and paper is supplied by the bypass/duplex motor (CCW).
In standby mode, the bypass pick-up roller is not in contact with the paper surface. This is opposite to the
paper feed tray.
