When feed starts with a full tray, the actuator [A] on the rotating shaft of the bottom
plate lift arm [B] is at the 1st tray lower limit sensor [C].
As paper feeds and the stack grows smaller, the lift arm rises and the actuator
descends until the actuator reaches the 1st tray upper limit sensor [D]. At this time
the operation panel signals near-end for the 1st tray.
When the last sheet feeds, the paper feed sensor, a photosensor (not shown)
signals that paper has run out.
