Either of these modes can be selected on the control panel of the MFP. The following flowchart shows the flow of operations performed by the above sections. These operations are explained according to this flowchart.
Movement of the standby position of the punch unit When the punch mode is selected, the punch shift motor (M802) runs to move the punch unit so that the paper edge sensor mounted on the punch unit is placed inside of the side edge of paper by 5 mm. However, if the paper size is Letter, Legal, or 5.5 by 8.5R, the sensor is positioned by 10 mm inside. The above operation is not generally performed in the non-punch mode, however, for the paper sizes shown below, the punch unit is moved to the position located inside of the side edge of paper by 10 mm in order to secure the easy feeding of paper when conveyed.
