  • Page 46: Double-Feed Detection Function

    Chapter 2 Operations 11. Double-Feed Detection Function 11-1. What is Double-Feed Detection Function ? Double-feed is feeding of more than two sheets of paper at once time. Using a sensor which measures paper thickness, the thickness of a paper fed is read as standard data during presettings, this paper is then compared with the data of the paper conveyed from the paper feed trays, and if the difference between the two data is large, it is determined as double-feeding of paper.
