Saddle stitching alignment control

A. Mechanism
In the saddle stitching alignment, the saddle stitching alignment plates /Lt [2] and /Rt [8] align the center folded
paper [5] in the sub scan direction.
The saddle stitching alignment motor /Lt (M16) [3] drives the saddle stitching alignment plate /Lt [2] in the sub
scan direction via the belt by rotating in the forward and reverse directions. The saddle stitching alignment plate
/Lt moves to the position for the appropriate paper size when the main body start signal turns ON, and it does
not move during the print operation. It return to the position at the saddle stitching alignment home sensor /Lt
(PS29) [4] after the print operation.
The saddle stitching alignment motor /Rt (M9) [7] drives the saddle stitching alignment plate /Rt [8] in the sub
scan direction via the belt by rotating in the forward and reverse directions. The alignment operation is con-
ducted by M9 by rotating in the forward and reverse directions every time the center folded paper is conveyed.
It return to the position at the saddle stitching alignment home sensor /Rt (PS28) [6] after the print operation.
