2-1-1 Mechanical construction The DP consists of the original feed section, original conveying section and original switchback section. The original feed section conveys an original set on the original table to the original conveying section in synchronization with original scanning of the scanner on the copier. The original conveying section conveys an original onto the slit glass and ejects it after scanning is complete.
