arm. When it is time to feed the paper, the pick-up solenoid [C] turns on, causing
the pick-up roller to contact the paper.
2.8.4 REGISTRATION MECHANISM AND PAPER FEED DRIVE
[A]

[B]
[D]
A259D710.WMF
The paper feed motor [A] drives the upper registration roller [B] via the registration
clutch [C], gears and timing belt.
The grip rollers [D] feed the paper to the registration rollers. They also ensure
correct registration when the by-pass table is being used. Without these rollers, the
paper would sag into the space below the feed path, and this would prevent the
paper's leading edge from staying at the registration roller during registration.
The paper feed motor drives the other paper feed mechanisms motor via gears and
a timing belt.
