Tandem Tray Side Fence Operation

The right tray is provided with two solenoids [A] at the front and back. When paper in the right tray runs out:

• The front and rear side fence solenoids switch on and open both fences [B] swing open until the front and back fence open sensors [C] switch on.
• When the rear fence of the left tray pushed paper into the right tray, the rear fence return sensor switches on and switches off the side fence solenoids and the side fences close.
• When the front and rear side fence closed sensors [D] activate after the side fences close, this triggers a message on the operation panel to tell the user to load paper into the left side of the tandem tray. If the fences do not close correctly, a message on the operation panel alerts the user to reset the tray.
