12.1.2.2.3. Job Offset
1. Outline
"Job offset" refers to the operation by which the machine delivers a set of sheets with them pulled
forward, or backward for sorting.
Switching between the forward, and backward directions is accomplished by using an aligning plate
(Front), and an aligning plate (Rear).
The sheet coming between the Delivery Rollers is fed onto the Processing Tray, and then fed toward
the stopper by the Paddle.
A swing guide is at the upper position while a sheet is being pulled onto the Processing Tray, or during
alignment. It is at the lower position during stack feeding, stack delivery, or stapling.
At power-on, the Finisher Controller PCB drives the Aligning Plate (Front) Motor (M4), and the Aligning
Plate (Rear) Motor (M5) to return the two aligning plates to their home positions.
