Paper conveyance *1 Conveyance roller
Paper exit switching *2 Paper exit guide gate
*1: Paper conveyance
The paper conveyed from the fixing unit in the main
body is conveyed to either paper exit roller (upper) or
(lower) by the conveyance roller. The conveyance
roller is driven by the main motor on the main body
(M1), and driving power is transmitted to both paper
exit roller (upper) and (lower) via a timing belt.
*2: Paper exit switching
The paper that is conveyed by the conveyance
roller is exited to paper exit tray (upper) or paper
exit tray (lower) by the paper exit guide gate. The
upper exit guide gate is operated by the IT gate SD
(SD8). If the IT gate SD goes ON, paper is ejected
to paper exit tray (lower).
