Sheet handling mechanism with sheet position detection

摘要

The device has a sheet detection device (10) including a feeler (16) movable between a rest position and a retracted position. The device (10) has an optical sensor (14) with two states and cooperating with a palette (13) of the feeler for being in one state when the feeler is in the rest or in the retracted position, and in another state when the feeler is in an intermediate position between the rest and retracted positions.
