<p>A copy machine includes a photoreceptor (10) for storing a document image, a transfer station (D) for transferring a stored document image to a sheet of copy paper at a transfer location, a supply tray (33) for storing a quantity of copy sheets (31), transport rollers (17, 19) for conveying copy sheets along a path from the supply tray to the transfer location, a detector (40) for detecting a misfeed in the path and for outputting a misfeed signal, and a controller (82) for preventing an image on the photoreceptor from entering the transfer location upon receipt of the misfeed signal. Transfer of the document image from the photoreceptor to a copy sheet takes place after the misfeed has cleared. <IMAGE></p> |
