1.2Operation
1.2.1Tray up drive control
When the paper feed tr ay is set, the PS101 (Tray sensor /3) de tec ts the tr ay to t ur n on the M1 01 (Tray up
drive motor /3). As a result, the wire is wound up to lift the tray.
When the PS1 02 (Tray upper limi t sensor /3) is turn ed on to de tect th e paper upper li mit, the M1 01 goes
off. When paper is fed and the PS102 is turned off, the M101 lifts the paper lift plat e until the PS102 is
turned on again. When the tray is pulled out, the coupling is released and the paper lift plate goes down by
its own weight.
1.2.2Paper feed control
The paper feed system i s driven by the M100 (D B paper feed motor ). When th e SD101 (Pape r feed solenoid /U) is turned on, the 1st paper feed section feeds paper to the registration section.
II UNIT EXPLANATION
1.2.3Remaining paper detection control
The remaining paper quantity is detected by the PS101 (Tray sensor /3) and the PS109 (Remaining paper
sensor). The paper lift plate goes up gradually as the quantity of paper in the tray is getting reduced. Interlocking with the paper l ift plate that goes up, th e actuat or at t he rear of the tray rotates . The remaining
paper quantity is det ected by the combina tion of the PS101 and th e PS109 whe n they are tur ned on and
off by the actuator.
No paper detection is made by the PS103 (No paper sensor /3).

1.2.4Paper size detection
The paper size in the tray can be set by turning the PSDTB /3 (Paper size detection board /3) by hand, and
the DBDB (DB drive b oard) d etects a swit ch sign al acc ording to th e positio n o f the SW 1. The tab le bel ow
