A. Outline

The NP6218 uses center reference, in which copy paper is moved through the center of the pick-up/feeding path for stable pick-up/feeding operation.

Pick-up operation may be the cassette 1 pick-up from the copier, cassette 2/3 pick- up from the Cassette feeding Module-B2/A2 and multifeeder pick-up.

When making copies, copy paper picked up from the cassette 1/2/3 or multifeeder is controlled by the registration roller so that the leading edge of the image on photosensitive drum matches with the leading edge of the copy paper; the paper is then sent to the copy tray through the transfer, separation, feeding, fixing, and delivery assemblies.
