2. Lift Operation
When the power to the main unit is turned ON with the tray at a
midway position (that is, a position where both the upper limit sen-
sor (LUD) and tray downer limit detector (LDD) are OFF) or with the
tray at the lower limit position (where the tray downer limit detector
LDD is ON), the main unit issues a lift-up request and, in response,
the lift motor is turned ON to lift the tray.
If the tray paper empty detector (LPED) turns ON within 800
encoder pulses of the start of tray lift, the lift motor is temporarily
turned OFF to stop the tray, and then the paper feed solenoid is
turned ON to lower the pick roller. Subsequently, the lift motor is
turned ON, and the tray is lifted to and stopped at a position where
the upper limit sensor (LUD) is turned ON.
If the tray paper empty detector (LPED) does NOT turn ON within
800 pulses of the start of tray lift, the paper feed solenoid is turned
ON with the lift motor remaining ON, and the pick roller is lowered.
The lift motor stops when the tray reaches a position where the
upper limit sensor (LUD) is turned ON, and subsequently the paper
feed solenoid is turned OFF.
Lift operation is not performed if the power to the main unit is turned
ON with the tray at a position where it can feed paper.
When the tray is drawn out, it lowers by its own weight.

3. Paper Feed Operation
Paper feed operation can be performed if the tray is stationary at a
position where it can feed paper (with the upper limit sensor (LUD)
being ON) and there is paper in the tray.
When paper feed takes place, the paper feed motor (LPFM), the
transport clutch (LTRC), the paper feed clutch (LPFC), and the
paper feed solenoid (LPFS) operate with the following timings:

being ON) and there is paper in the tray.
When paper feed takes place, the paper feed motor (LPFM), the
transport clutch (LTRC), the paper feed clutch (LPFC), and the
paper feed solenoid (LPFS) operate with the following timings:
When the transport clutch (LTRC) turns ON with the paper feed
motor (LPFM) is ON (rotating), the transport roller starts rotating.
When the paper feed clutch (LPFC) turns ON in this state, the
paper feed and paper pick up rollers start rotating.
When the paper feed solenoid (LPFS) turns ON, the paper pick up
roller is pushed down to press paper.

When the paper feed clutch (LPFC) turns ON in this state, the
paper feed and paper pick up rollers start rotating.
When the paper feed solenoid (LPFS) turns ON, the paper pick up
roller is pushed down to press paper.
Paper feed time chart
*1: Operation stops only if the main unit synchronization signal is output.
When operation is stopped, the ON/OFF timing for each load is delayed by the stoppage time because each timer is suspended during the
stoppage.
To ensure efficient job processing, operation is not stopped under normal conditions.
