[5] Paper Size Detection Control
PRCB
The paper size in tray 3 is detected using PS38 (paper
size 1-3), PS39 (paper size 2-3) and paper size
detection VR3. Based on the detection signals, the
PRCB (printer control board) judges the paper size.
1.
Operation
The length of paper is detected using PS38 and
PS39. A variable resistor (VR3) is installed at
the bottom of the tray to detect the width of
paper.
The relationships between the switches and
paper sizes (lengths) are as follows:
Paper size
8.5 x 11 A4R to F4
Switch
or less B5R
PS38
OFF
PS39
OFF

[6] No Paper Detection Control
No paper in the tray is detected by PS28 (no paper 3)
which is controlled by the PRCB (printer control board).
1.
Operation
When the tray becomes empty, PS28 is turned
ON, displaying a message on the LCD via the
OB1 (operation board 1).
