2.1.1 Document feeding and ejecting mechanism To feed and eject documents, the scanner motor rotates counterclockwise. It rotates the sun gear 19/55 clockwise so that the planet gear 23 ASSY transmits the torque to the gear 19/47 and its gear train. After completion of paper ejection, the scanner motor rotates clockwise in order to disengage the planet gear 23 ASSY from the gear 19/47. This allows you to pull back a document if jammed in the backward direction.

uses
a

(CIS)
unit
which
consists
of

on
which
a

advances.
When
the
document
passes
between
the

bar
and
the
cover
glass,
it is
scanned.
