When an original is placed on th e table, the leading edge is sto pp ed by t he
stopper [A], and the feeler activates the original set sensor [B]. The Insert
Original indicator light goes out an d the DF informs the copie r’s CPU that th e
originals have been set.
When the Print key is pressed, the stopper solenoid [C] activates to raise the
stopper to allow the originals to be fed in, and to lower the press lever [D] to
press the originals against the pick-up rollers [E ].
An anti-static brush [F] is insta lled to elimin at e static electricity caused during
the original pick-up process.

[B] [F]

[D]
[A]
[B]
Originals are separated using the frictio n belt [A] and the feed roller [B].
When the copier sends a signal to the DF to feed in the original, the feed-in
motor [C] starts rotating (clockwise) to drive the pick-u p [D], fe ed and pull-o ut
[E] rollers. A one-way bearing stops the friction belt from rot ating . Originals
are separated and fed in one by one because the resist an ce of the stat ionary
friction belt is greater than the friction betwee n pages of th e origina l.
When the registration sensor [F] detects the separated first origin al, the
feed-in motor reverses (counter clockwise), and the drive is transmitted only
to the pull-out rollers due to a one-way bearing. In this condition, the pull-ou t
rollers are still rotating in the same direction, and they feed the original to the
exposure glass. The motor turns off when the trailing edg e of the 1st orig inal
has finished passing over th e sensor.
To prepare the next original, the feed-in motor turns clockwise to separate
the second original and the motor turns off when the registration sensor
detects the second origina l. Whe n it is time fo r the secon d orig inal to be fed
to the exposure glass, the feed -in mot or tu rns cou nt er clockwise .

4.3 FRICTION BELT DRIVE MECHANISM
[A]
[B]
[C]
Document
Auto Reverse
The feed-in motor [A] drives the frictio n belt [B] through timing belts and
gears. The one-way bearing allows the belt to rotate in the dire ctio n sho wn
only when the feed-in motor is rotating count erclo ckwise. (The feed -in mot or
rotates counterclockwise when the original is passing over the registration
sensor, and only the pull-out rollers are rotatin g to feed the pape r to the
exposure glass.)
As a result of this operation, th e part of the friction belt that contacts the feed
roller [C] or the original changes. This prevents multiple feeding or causing
originals to become dirty.
The reverse movement of the frictio n be lt will not aff ect the next origin al
because the pressure of the press leve r hold s the origin als in pla ce.

4.4 ORIGINAL SIZE DETE CTION
[C]
[B]
[A]
The DF detects original width using three original width sensors-1 [A] , -2 [B ]
and -3 [C]. It also detect s the origin al length using the registra tion sensor.
The DF CPU counts the feed-in mot or’s drive pulse s during the on timing of
the registration senso r. Ba sed on th is pulse coun t, the CPU det ermin es the
original length.
The machine detects t he origin al size by th e total combination of all fo ur
sensors.
