17.3.2
Media separation mechanism
Drive from the transport motor is transmitted through the tray2 media feed clutch to turn
the feed roller.
The feed roller rotates to take up and feed media into the main body.
Double-feeding of media is prevented by the separation roller provided with a torque lim-
iter.
17.3.3
Media feed control
Drive from the transport motor is transmitted through the tray2 media feed clutch to turn
the feed roller, thereby taking up and feeding the media.
The media taken up and fed in is conveyed onto the registration roller.
The media is pressed against the stationary registration roller so that a loop is formed in
the media. The feed roller is then stopped. The loop thus formed in the media corrects
any mechanical skew in the media.
As the trailing edge of the media reaches a point immediately before the feed roller, the
feed roller is stopped.
