3.2.1 Scanner Mechanism
3.2.1.1 Document feeding and ejecting mechanism
This mechanism consists of the document support, automatic document feeder (ADF), document
feed roller, document ejection roller ASSY, and document sensors. (For details about the sensors,
refer to Section
Placing documents face down on the top cover and starting the scanning operation activate the
scanner motor so that the ADF (consisting of the document pull-in roller, nip piece, separation roller
and ADF parts) feeds the documents into the machine, starting from the bottom (first page), page
by page. Each document advances with the document feed roller to the scanner, and then it is fed out
of the machine with the document ejection roller ASSY.
Document support
3.2.1.2 Document scanning mechanism
The scanner uses a contact image sensor (CIS) unit which consists of the document illumination
LED array, the self-focus lens array gathering the light reflected from the scanned image, the CIS
PCB converting the light input to pixel data output, and CIS glass on which a document advances.
When the document passes between the document pressure bar and the cover glass, it is scanned.
