Function

Clutches

 

 

MC8

Transport

Drives the transport rollers in the bypass tray.

MC9

Paper Feed

Drives the paper feed roller in the bypass tray.

MC10

Grip

Drives the grip clutch in the bypass tray.

Motors

 

 

M5

Tray

Drives all rollers in the bypass tray.

M6

Tray Lift

Lifts and lowers the tray.

Sensors

 

 

S23

Paper Feed

Detects the copy paper coming to the paper feed

roller and checks for misfeeds.

 

 

S24

Lift

Detects when the paper in the bypass tray is at

the correct paper feed height.

 

 

S25

Lower Limit

Detects when the tray is at its lowest possible

position.

 

 

S26

Paper End

Informs the copier when the paper in the bypass

tray has run out.

 

 

 

 

Used with the paper width switch to determine

 

 

paper size. This sensor is activated when paper is

 

 

set for short edge feed. For example, when the

S27

Paper Length

paper width switch detects A4 width and this

sensor is off, the machine determines A4 is set for

 

 

 

 

long edge feed. When A4 width is detected and

 

 

the paper length sensor is on, then the machine

 

 

determines that A3 is loaded for short edge feed.

S28

Paper Height 1

Detects the paper height in the bypass tray.

S29

Paper Height 2

Detects the paper height in the bypass tray.

Solenoid

SOL7

Pick-up

Controls up-down movement of the pick-up roller

in the bypass tray.

 

 

Switches

 

 

 

 

Switches the tray lift motor on and off to lift and

SW5

Tray Lift

lower the bottom plate of the tray. This switch

 

 

must be pressed to start paper feed.

 

 

A slide switch connected to the side fences. When

 

 

the side fences are moved to match the paper

SW6

Paper Width

width, four feelers inside the paper size switch

 

 

slide along wiring patterns of a terminal plate. The

 

 

wire pattern detected determines the paper width.

 

 

 

The numbering for the components does not start at 1 because the point-to-point diagram for the bypass tray is included on the diagram for the LCT. For the purpose of component numbering, they are considered together as one unit.
