The duplex feed motor [A] starts after the leading edge of the paper activates the
paper exit sensor. This motor drives the duplex feed rollers [B] and the duplex
entrance rollers [C]. These rollers direct the paper from the junction gate into the
duplex tray.
The tip of the flip mylar [D] moves to the left (front view) when the duplex feed
rollers rotate to feed the copy into the duplex tray. The mylar presses the paper
against the duplex feed rollers, ensuring that the trailing edge of the paper clears
the guide plate.
