In an image forming apparatus, a sheet is discharged onto an output tray. The image forming apparatus includes a ranging sensor which measures a distance to an object from a position located away by a predetermined distance from a bottom surface of the output tray in a sheet loading direction on a line in parallel with the bottom surface of the output tray and orthogonal to a direction in which the sheet is discharged. In the image forming apparatus, discharge of the sheet onto the output tray is stopped when the distance to the object measured by the ranging sensor is lower than a specific distance.

A sheet hold flap 18 is arranged on an upper side of a vicinity of a rear end portion of a sheet table 7 to which a sheet is continuously supplied from a copier or the like. The sheet hold flap is switched to an upper initial position and a sheet holding position by a solenoid 17. There is carried out a control of holding a rear end portion of a sheet P by driving the sheet hold flap to the sheet holding position after taking in a street to the sheet table and returning the sheet hold flap to the initial position to escape from a sheet path in taking in a successive sheet. Sheet jamming by floating up the sheet is prevented by holding a sheet on the sheet table until immediately before taking in the successive sheet.

A lead edge sheet curl sensor apparatus and method are disclosed. In general, a first and a second light emitter are aligned wherein the light beams from the first light emitter and second light emitter cross. The first and second light emitter beams cross at the transport media sheet substrate path wherein the transport media sheet substrate path is the path of a media sheet substrate with zero curl. First and second light detectors are aligned to receive the light beams from the first and second light emitters.A media sheet substrate with either positive or negative curl on the lead edge of the sheet substrate interrupts light beams from first and second light emitters, as detected at first and second light detectors. The time delay between the light beam interruptions is proportional to the sheet substrate curl, and the order of interruptions indicates whether the sheet substrate curl is positive or negative.

A value sheet handling apparatus comprises an actuating mechanism for exerting pressure onto a value sheet so as to move the value sheet, and further comprises detecting means to detect movement of the value sheet with respect to the actuating mechanism, wherein if the detecting means ascertains that the value sheet has not been moved by the actuating mechanism the pressure exerted Onto die flexible media is increased until motion of the value sheet is detected. Additionally or alternatively, the pressure is varied in dependence on the type of the value sheet. The value sheet is dispensed from a stack by buckling the sheet, the rest of the stack being gripped in the area exposed by the buckling of the sheet.

According to an aspect of the invention an adjustable sheet feeder for use in an apparatus for feeding sheets from the top of a sheet supply stack is shown. The sheet supply stack has a center and marginal edges, each having a top. The adjustable sheet feeder comprises a sheet supply stack support, a sheet feed head assembly, a curl sensing device which senses the position of the stack edges relative to the position of the stack center top and provides feedback, an adjustment device, and a feed back display which displays the curl sensing device feedback. The adjustment device adjusts the position of the stack center top relative to the position of the stack marginal edges top based on the curl sensing device feedback.

A tray riser is configured for retrofit in a printer feed tray. The riser includes a plate for supporting a stack of sheets in the tray. A stand is integrally formed with a bottom of the plate to position a front edge of the plate higher in elevation than a back edge of the plate. A retention tab is integrally formed with the plate for engaging a pre-existing feature in the tray to retain the riser in the tray.

A paper feeding apparatus according to the present invention has a pickup roller, which includes a drive shaft disposed so as to cross a sheet tray and a plurality of roller parts intermittently attached to the drive shaft, and elastic supporting means, which substantially independently supports a plurality of exposed parts of the drive shaft so as to apply pressure towards a base plate of the sheet tray. In the paper feeding apparatus, respective exposed parts of the drive shaft, which has a narrow diameter and being flexible, are independently pressurized towards the sheet tray of the base plate, so that the respective roller parts contact tightly with the sheets substantially independently. Accordingly, sheets can be fed with high reliability by making the most of the flexibility of the drive shaft. The extremely slim and highly reliable paper feeding apparatus with the extremely slim pickup roller is provided. By stacking a plurality of these paper feeding apparatuses, a compact multitray can be provided.
