When the left tray paper length sensor [A] detects paper and the tray 1 paper end
sensor [B] detects no paper, the back plate drive motor [C] moves the back plate
[D]. This motor pushes the stack of paper from the left half of the tandem tray into
the right half of the tandem tray.
The actuator on the back plate activates the return position sensor [E] when the
paper stack has reached the right side of the tray. Then, the back plate drive motor
rotates until the actuator activates the back plate home position sensor [F].
