Print Sequence
When the Imager receives a print request, it determines the requested film
size and type and then it selects the appropriate film cartridge.
Each time the Imager receives a print request, the following print sequence
occurs:
1. Suction cups in the pickup area lift a single sheet of film out of the
supply cartridge and feed the film into the transport rollers.
2. The transport rollers move the film up into the registration transport
area, where film registration takes place.
3. The film registration transport then moves the film into the exposure
transport area.
4. As the film moves through the exposure transport, the optics module
writes the image onto the film, then moves the film into the film
processor.
5. As the film passes over the processor drum, the heat generated by the
drum develops the film.
6. The film transport rollers move the exposed film to the exit area.
