Feeding sequence: in special tray mode
In special tray mode, the output is fed only by the motor for the tray drive. The
drive motor for the bin unit does not rotate.
The motor for the tray drive is a DC motor. The clockwise rotation of the motor
is controlled by pulses from the clock sensors.
The output from the copier is carried through the feeding path, formed by the
deflecting plate 1. This is controlled by the solenoid SL1.
