CHAPTER 2 FINISHER UNIT BASIC OPERATION
3. 2nd and Subsequent Sheets
The finisher controller PCB turns on the paddle solenoid (SL5) as soon as the trailing edge of
the second and subsequent sheets have moved past the feed roller 2, thereby causing the drive of the
feed motor to rotate the paddle.
The sheets are pushed by the paddle and moved to the stapling tray. The paddle operates twice
for each sheet of B4, A3, 297 × 432mm (11 × 17), or LGL and once for other sizes. When the sheet
has been deposited to the stapling tray, the finisher controller PCB rotates the alignment plate shift
motor (M3) to put the sheets in order.
