3.2.3 Paper registration

After the paper top position is detected by the regist actuator front, the paper, separated into
individual sheets by the separation roller, is fed further for a specified time, and the paper top
position reaches the regist roller so that the paper skew is adjusted. Then, the regist
solenoid is turned on, the regist roller starts turning, and the paper is fed to the transfer roller
in the drum/toner ASSY.

The regist actuator rear in the path from the regist roller to the transfer roller controls the first
print position on the paper. The printer starts transferring an image when a definite time
passes after the paper is passed through the regist actuator rear.
