6.3.2.5 Paper Pressure Releasing Mechanism

The LCC is provided with a mechanism that releases the pressure
between the Feed and Separator Rollers and between the paper and
Paper Take-up Roller when the LCC is slid out of the printer.
The pressure between the Feed and Separator Rolls is released by the
Separator Roller Assy and the Pressure Release Rail above the rail on
the paper take-up end. When LCC is pulled out, the Pressure Release
Rail pushes the Separator Roller Assy downward, thus releasing the
pressure between the Feed and Separator Roller.

6.3.2.6 Paper Take-up Roller Retracting Mechanism

The pressure between the paper and Paper Take-up Roller is released
by the projection on the back side of the Front Cover, Pressure Release
Lever, and Paper Take-up Roller Assy. When the LCC is slid out, it
releases the Pressure Release Lever, which pushes the Paper Take-up
Roller upward to release pressure between the paper and Paper Take-
up Roller.
