of 250 sheets. The front loading system allow you to install or remove the tray from the front cabinet.
The general descriptions on the tray paper feed and the manual paper feed are given below.

1. The figure below shows the positions of the pick-up roller,

the paper feed clutch sleeve, and the paper feed latch in the
initial state without pressing the COPY button after lighting
the ready lamp.
The paper feed latch is in contact with the projection of the
clutch sleeve.

2. When the COPY button is pressed, the main drive motor

starts rotating to drive each drive gear.
The pick-up drive gear also is driven at that time. Since,
however, the paper feed latch is in contact with the projec-
tion of the clutch sleeve, rotation of the drive gear is not
transmitted to the pick-up roller, which does not rotate there-
fore.
