14-3. MP Cassette Paper Empty Detection

• Two sensors are used in this copier: the Paper Empty Sensor detects a paper-empty
condition, while the Paper Near-Empty Sensor detects a paper near-empty condition.
Paper Near-Empty Detection:
• A paper near-empty condition is detected as the paper is consumed and when the Near-
Empty Lever lowers to eventually block the sensor (L).
• At this time, the MP Cassette Paper Empty LED starts blinking.
• A paper-empty condition results when about 50 more sheets of paper are used after the
near-empty condition has been detected.
Paper Empty Detection:
• A paper-empty condition is detected as the paper is consumed and when the Empty
Lever lowers to eventually block the sensor (L).
• At this time, the MP Cassette Paper Empty LED lights up steadily.
