M201/M202 (tray up/down/U/L) raises the up/down plate/U/L. MC201 (conveyance/U) M203 (PI conveyance) When SD201/SD202 (sheet feed/U/L) and MC201/MC202 (conveyance/U/L) comes on, the drive of M203 (PI conveyance) is transmitted and the sheets are fed one by one by pick, feed, and separation rollers. MC202 (Conveyance/L) PS210 (tray lower limit/L) M201 (tray up/down/U) PS205 ( tray lower limit/U ) PS202 (no sheet/U) MC203 (registration) controls the drive force transmitted to the conveyance rollers /U/L, which forms a loop for the fed sheet. PS204 (tray upper limit/U) The related signals are:
PS201/PS206 (PI passage U/L), PS202/PS207 (No sheet/U/L), PS203/PS208 (Sheet setting/U/L), PS204/PS209 (Tray upper limit/U/L), PS205/PS210 (Tray lower limit/U/L), PS212 (Sheet size/L), and VR201/VR202 (Sheet size/U/L). M202 (tray up/ down/L) Post insertion unit explanation Up/down plate/U/L SD202 (sheet feed/L) PS207 (no sheet/L) SD201 (sheet feed/U) PS209 (tray upper limit/L) PS208 (sheet setting/L) 1 Operation a Automatic sheet feeding (online) PS203 (sheet setting/U) 1 When the MFP’s START button turns on, M201/M202 (tray up/down/U/L) are driven in forward, which lifts the up/down plate/U/L until PS204/PS209 (tray upper limit/U/L) are activated.
b Manual sheet feeding (offline) Only the lower tray is allowed. 1 When the PI control panel’s START button turns on, M202 (tray up/down/L) is driven in forward, which lifts the up/down plate/L until PS209 (tray upper limit/L) is activated. 2 Concurrently, while M203 (PI conveyance) is driven at low speed, SD201/SD202 (sheet feed/U/L) and MC201/MC202 (conveyance/U/L) comes on and sheets are fed into the finisher stacker. 2 Concurrently, while M203 (PI conveyance) is driven at low speed, SD202 (sheet feed/L) and MC202 (conveyance/L) comes on and all sheets set in the up/down plate/L fed into the finisher stacker.
3 When the last sheet on the up/down plate/U/L is fed and PS203/PS208 (sheet setting/U/L) comes off, the no-sheet-signal is sent to the MFP, causing the first feed of MFP to stop. 3 The finisher carries out the required finishing processes (stapling, tri-folding, etc.). After that, when PS202/PS207 (no sheet/U/L) comes off, M201/M202 (tray up/down/U/L) are driven in reverse, which lowers the up/down plate/U/L until PS205/PS210 (tray lower limit/U/L) are activated. 4 PS207 (no sheet/L) comes off, M202 (tray up/down/L) is driven in reverse, which lowers the sheet tray until PS210 (tray lower limit/L) is activated.
