Registration control

• The main motor provides the drive for the registration roller.
• The registration roller clutch is connected to the registration roller. When the registration
clutch is energized, the driving force of the main motor is transmitted to the registration
roller. This rotates the registration roller.
• During paper transport, a loop is formed in the paper between the tray 1 feed roller
(bypass feed roller) and the registration roller to thereby correct any skew in the paper.
• Registration roller is controlled in order to synchronize the timing the unit starts writing
the image and conveying paper.
A. Adjustment
• The amount of the loop in the paper can be varied using "SERVICE'S CHOICE - LOOP
Ad. (TRAY1) / LOOP Ad. (BYPASS)".
Changing the adjustment value will vary the timing at which the registration clutch is
energized.
