Tray 3 or 4 media tray assembly
TTM media feed units
Media feed unit assembly
Since the tray 3 and tray 4 are functionally equivalent in terms of the switch (TTM media size), sensor (media
out), sensor (media level) and sensor (pre-feed), only the components of one tray are described here.
The media feed unit assembly is a mechanical unit supplying media from the media tray assembly to the printer.
The driving force from the media feed lift motor on the media feed unit assembly is transmitted to the three roll
assemblies to feed media.
When the pick roll picks up sheets of media and the remaining media decreases, the media level actuator of the
sensor (media level) lowers accordingly.
Media feed lift motor
The media feed lift motor is activated to feed media and to lift the bottom plate. While feeding media, it rotates
forward to drive the pick roll. When lifting the bottom plate, it rotates in reverse to drive the tray module gears to
turn the lift up shaft.
Switch (media size)
This switch (media size) sets the size of media supplied from each media tray assembly. A signal indicating the
media size is transmitted as a voltage to the printer engine card assembly.
