2.2.7.2 Paper Feed Mechanism

Since the Lower Cassette Unit does not have drive motor, driving power in the
Lower Cassette Unit for feeding and carrying paper is transmitted from the printer
(from M1) via the connecting gear.
(See "Figure 2-25")
Paper feed method is the same as with the MP Tray. However, paper separation
method is different; the separation pad method is used for the MP Tray, while the
separator claw is used for the Lower Cassette Unit.
The separator claw method uses the paper separator claw installed at the paper
cassette and the elasticity of paper. Only one sheet of paper is fed by one paper
feed operation.
The paper feed solenoid is controlled from the printer side via the control board in
the Lower Cassette.
