A: Document Sensor
B: Scan Line Sensor
C: Separation Rubber Plate
E: Tx Motor
The document sensor [A] detects when a document is placed in the ADF. The
tx motor [E] then starts to prefeed the document until the scan line sensor [B]
detects it. The separation rubber plate [C] prevents the feed roller [D] from
feeding more than one sheet at a time.
To feed the document throught the scanner, the Tx motor [E] drives the feed
roller, the R1 roller [F], and the R2 roller [G].
