III. PICK-UP FROM THE MULTIFEEDER
A. Pick-Up Operation

1. Outline

The multifeeder is a mechanism which picks up copy paper from the stack placed on
it and which is capable of continuous pick-up.
The copy paper on the tray is monitored by the multifeeder paper sensor (PS6).
The copy paper on the tray is butted against the pick-up roller by the paper guide
plate. The drive of the main motor (M1) is transmitted to the pick-up roller through a
multifeeder pick-up clutch (CL4) to rotate the pick-up roller.
The pick-up roller and the separation pad serve to make sure that only one sheet of
copy paper is picked up and sent to the registration roller.
This series of operations is executed for each pick-up operation.
