Feeding from Paper Cassette

The paper loaded in the paper cassette is fed between the Feed Roller and the Retard Roller by the
Nudger Roller, and fed farther to the registration section by the rotation of the Feed Roller and the
Retard Roller.
The Nudger Roller and the Feed Roller are rotated by the torque of the Paper Transport Motor via the
Feed Roller Clutch.
The Retard Roller, pressed from underneath by the spring pressure and forced to the Feed Roller, plays a
role of fanning a sheet by the rotation friction.
