ORIGINAL SIZE DETECTION 20 February, 2001
2. DETAILED SECTION DESCRIPTIONS
2.1 ORIGINAL SIZE DETECTION
[B]
[C]
[A]
[E]
The DF uses two width sensors (width sensor 1 [A] and width sensor 2 [B]) to
detect the original width, and two length sensors (length sensor 1 [C] and length
sensor 2 [D]) to detect the original length. The DF detects the original size based
on the combination of inputs from these sensors, as indicated in the table on the
next page.
If using a non-standard original size, the user must input the original length at the
operation panel.
The original width sensors have four possible output states: P1 to P4. The output
depends on the position of the ridges on the toothed plate attached to the original
rear fence.
During one-to-one copying, copy paper is fed to the registration roller in advance to
increase the copy speed. The original exit trailing edge se nsor [E] monitors the
stack of originals in the feeder, and detects when the trailing edge of the last page
has been fed in. This stops the ADF from causing the feed of an unwanted extra
sheet of copy paper.

PICK-UP AND SEPARATION 20 February, 2001

B387D106.WMF
An FRR (feed and reverse roller) system is used.
Setting original(s) onto the feed table lifts the original set sensor feeler [A], causing
the original set sensor [B] to issue a signal informing the main CPU that the DF is
ready to start feeding.
When the Start key (!) is pressed, the DF pick-up solenoid [C] turns on, causing
the transport guide [D] and pick-up roller [E] to lo wer onto the original, while at the
same time causing the original stoppers [F] to drop down to clear the feed path for
the original. After 200 ms, the DF transport motor [G] turns on, feeding the top
original page to the paper feed belt [H], where it is separated by the separation
roller [I].
