CHAPTER 3. MECHANISM BLOCKS
1) Use of the paper feed roller and separate plate ensures error-free
transport and separation of documents. The plate spring presses the

Paper sizeLGL (216 mm x 355.6 mm)
1) The original, which is set in the document hopper, feeds automati-

cally when the front sensor is activated. This in turn activates the
LTR (216 mm x 279 mm)
pulse motor which drives the document supply roller. The document

2) The lead edge of the original is fed a specified number of pulses after
the lead edge of the document is detected for the reading process to
begin.NOTE: Double-side coated documents and documents on facsimile re-
cording paper should be inserted manually. The document feed

up in the hopper guide), the drive will be stopped when the docu-Documents heavier than 135 kg (157 g/m2 ) in terms of the paper weight

3-4. Loading the documents
3. Hopper mechanism
1) Make sure that the documents are of suitable size and thickness,
3-1. General viewand free from creases, folds, curls, wet glue, wet ink, clips, staples
and pins.
2) Place documents face down in the hopper.
i) Adjust the document guides to the document size.
ii) Align the top edge of documents and gently place them into the
hopper. The first page under the stack will be taken up by the
feed roller to get ready for transmission.
NOTES: 1) Curled edge of documents, if any, must be straightened
out.
2) Do not load the documents of different sizes and/or
Fig. 2
thicknesses together.
The hopper section contains document guides that are used to adjust
the hopper to the width of the original document. This ensures that the
original feeds straight into the fax machine for scanning.
Document width: 148 mm to 216 mm (A5 longitudinal size to Letter
longitudinal size)
NOTE: Adjust the document guide after setting up the document.
