(a) Hopping
1 For hopping, the registration motor turns in direction "a" (clockwise direction) and drives
the hopping roller to advance the paper until the inlet sensor turns on (in this case, the
registration gear also turns, but the registration roller is prevented from turning by the one-
way bearing).
2 After inlet sensor is turned on by the paper advance, the paper is further advanced to a
predetermined distance until the paper hits the registration roller (the skew of the paper
can thus be corrected).
(b) Feeding
1 When hopping is completed, the registration motor turning in direction "b" (counter-
clockwise direction) drives the registration roller to advance the paper (in this case, the
hopping gear also turns, but the hopping roller is prevented from turning by the one-way
bearing).
2 The paper is further advanced in synchronization with the print data.
