Straight transport operation

When the shift operation and the staple operation are not performed, this machine discharges 
paper to the load tray section without transporting paper to the process tray section.
In the straight transport operation, paper sent from the connected unit is discharged to the 
load tray section one by one.
Paper is driven by the Finisher paper transport motor 1 (FSM200) and sent inside the 
machine by the inlet roller to turn ON the Finisher paper enter detector (FNS101), driving the 
Finisher paper transport motor 1 (FSM200) and the Finisher paper transport motor 2 (FSM102). 
As a result, paper is transported and discharged by the transport roller 1, the transport roller 2, 
the transport roller 3, the paper exit front roller, and the bundle exit upper/lower rollers.
