MX-CFX1

[1] PRODUCT OUTLINE

This inserter is an optional unit for the MX-5500N/MX-6200N/MX7000N series of digital complex machines. With the inserter installed, blank sheets or printed sheets can be inserted as covers (made of cardboard) or tabbed sheets without being subject to the printing process (and without passing through a fixing unit). When the inserter is combined with a finisher (optional) and a punch unit (optional), printed sheets can proceed to the hole punching or stapling process without being subject to the copying process (or without passing through the main unit).

13) When a predetermined waiting time period has passed, the flapper solenoid is turned ON, the paper feed motor restarts, and the reverse motor starts to rotate in the forward direction.

14) The reverse sensor is turned ON, and detects the leading edge of the sheet.

15) When the trailing edge of the sheet leaves the timing sensor, the paper feed motor starts to slow down to stop.

(After the paper feed motor has completely stopped, if there is a next sheet to be inserted, the paper feed motor starts to reverse to take it in.)
