The manual feed pickup mechanism picks up sheets of paper in succession from the multi manual feed tray. The sheets of paper stacked in the tray are raised against
the manual feed pickup roller by the inner plate. The manual feed pickup roller is driven by the main motor (M204) via the manual feed pickup solenoid (SL202)
and gears. Only one sheet of paper is picked up by the combination of the manual feed pickup roller and manual feed pickup paper separation pad, and then fed to
the registration roller. These operations are performed for each sheet to be picked. The user must set the size of the paper in the multi manual feed tray using the
operation panel, or the user must register a fixed size in the user mode.
