AR-350/450 BASIC PAPER TRANSPORT PATH AND PAPER EXIT 3-2
C. Paper transport in duplex printing (with AR-DU3/DU4 installed)
(1) Switchback operation and paper exit to the left tray
1) Paper transported from the fusing section is sent to the paper exit section of the machine. 
2) When the male bin stacker (AR-MS1) or the finisher (AR-FN5) is installed, the paper entry gate solenoid (FGS) selects the paper entry gate to
discharge paper outside the machine. 
3) The paper exit sensor (POD2) detects the rear edge of paper, and the paper exit motor (DCBM) is rotated reversely.
4) Paper is taken into the machine again, passed over the reverse gate, and transported to the duplex unit. 
5) When duplex printing is made, the ADU gate solenoid switches to the upper side of the ADU paper exit gate to switch the paper path to the ADU.
6) When paper is discharged to the left tray or when paper is transported to the console finisher (AR-FN7), the ADU gate solenoid switches to the
upper side of the ADU paper exit gate to switch the paper path to the ADU. 
(2) Paper transport speed in duplex printing
The transport speed may be doubled in duplex printing depending on the paper position.
The positions of double speed are as follows:
1) From when the rear edge of paper passes the fusing section to when switchback operation is started.
2) From switchback operation, after the lead edge of paper passes APPD1, until a certain amount is transported.
3) After that, paper is stopped at the ADU paper feed position, and fed to the laser printer again.
D. Transport with AR-FN6 installed
The AR-FN6 is provided with the decurler to improve alignment capability of finishing.
The decurler makes decurling against curling of paper by means of the difference in rigidity of the upper roller (metal) and the lower roller (sponge).

2. Paper exit operation
A. Face down exit
This machine can select a paper exit port among some ports by installing an option. In all cases, paper is discharged in face down. There is no face up
discharge of paper in this machine.

3. Finishing operation
This machine allows selection of variable forms of finishing by installing
an option. 
A. Forms of finishing and options
4. Finishing operation (AR-FN6)
A. Alignment in offset
1) The joggers F/R are moved to the standby position before paper
entry into the alignment tray, and paper is passed to the alignment
tray.
2) When paper is passed into the alignment tray, the stopper solenoid is
turned on to receive paper.
3) After paper entry into the alignment tray, the joggers are moved to
the suitable positions according to the paper size, and paper is
offset.
4) The stopper solenoid is turned off and the pressure release (roller)
solenoid is turned on to discharge paper to the tray 2.
B. Alignment in stapling
1) Before paper entry into the alignment tray, the joggers F/R are
moved to the standby position, and paper is entered into the
alignment tray.
2) When paper enters the alignment tray, the stopper solenoid is turned
on to receive paper.
3) After paper entry into the alignment tray, the joggers F/R are moved
to the paper size positions to align paper.
4) The paper holder solenoid is turned on at the same time with (3) to
hold the rear edge of entered paper, and the pusher is moved to the
paper size position.
5) After completion of moving the pusher, the paper holder solenoid is
turned off.
C. Stapling
1) The stapler is moved from the staple replacement position to the
slidable position.
2) The stapler is shifted to the stapling position.
3) The stapler is rotated to the stapling position.
Put paper to be stapled in the staple tray.
4) Paper is stapled.
5) The stapler is rotated to the standby position.
When in one-position stapling, a bundle of paper is discharged to the
tray 2 (paper exit section), and the procedure goes to (10)
6) The stapler is shifted to the second stapling position.
7) The stapler is rotated to the stapling position.
8) Paper is stapled. (Second stapling)
9) The stapler is rotated to the standby position.
The bundle of paper is discharged to the tray 2 (paper exit section)
10) After completion of a job, the stapler is shifted to the staple
replacement position.
