Overview

Paper inside a cassette is lifted up by the Lifter Plate.
The Lifter Plate is lifted up by rotating the Cassette Lifter Motor (M103/M104). When the Pickup Roller comes into contact with
the paper surface, the Cassette Pickup Motor (M101/M102) rotates to pick up the surface layer paper, and the Cassette Feed
Roller and Cassette Separation Roller feed only 1 sheet of paper to the feed path. Then, it is moved to the Pre-registration Roller
by the rotation of the Cassette Pullout Motor (M105/M106).
The Cassette Pickup Roller, Cassette Feed Roller, and Cassette Separation Roller are driven by the Cassette Pickup Motor
(M101/M102) while the Cassette Vertical Path Roller is operated by the rotation of the Cassette Pullout Motor (M105/M106).
