1. Checking the Presence/Absence of an Original at 2 Points (individual points of detection)
For main scanning direction, the machine identifies the presence/absence of an original with reference to the CCD output at 2 points (nearest).
Note:
Change in the Signal in Response to ADF Open -> Closed
change present: no
other: yes
The OR argument is applied to the outputs at 2 points.
2. Priority on the Presence of an Original at the Front
If the machine detects the absence of an original at the rear in spite of detection of the presence at the front for main scanning direction, the machine will
identify the size of the original upholding the result of detection at the front.
