Abstract

A multi-function peripheral (MFP) includes a scanning unit, a printing unit and an illumination device. The scanning unit is installed above the printing unit and a paper storage space is formed between the scanning unit and printing unit. After a printed sheet leaves the printing unit, it stays in the paper storage space. The illumination device is installed within the paper storage space and includes a light source, which may be a bulb. The light source may be attached to a bottom surface of the scanning unit. The MFP may further include a switch electrically connected to a power supply to turn on or off the light source.

Description of the invention (3) After the original is scanned and processed into printed data, the processed data is transmitted to the printing tl6 for printing. In other words, the MFP is a machine. The printing unit 6 includes many elements, and since they are all known to those skilled in the art, they are not described in detail one by one, and only a few of them are briefly outlined. The children of the printing unit 6 are housed in a case or a shelf 8. The shell 8 is provided on the floor. The shell 8 defines openings (not divided) covered by a piece of door 10 provided thereon. Opening the door 10, the operator or maintenance personnel can access the components of the printing unit 6 in the case 8 to change the paint, remove the paper jammed between the components, repair or replace the components, or perform other tasks. The printing unit 6 also has a drawer-type paper cassette 丨, 2 1] under 10. Withdraw the paper by 2 and the operator can load the paper into the paper 1. Push the paper E12 into the case 8, and the printing unit 6 can pick up the paper from the paper £ 12 for f7 or the paper tray 12 can be used to place blank paper, instead of the printing unit 6 connected one by one. After printing, the paper leaves the top surface of the print sheet from an output device. As shown in FIG. 3, the paper leaves the printing unit 6 and stops on the top surface of the device 8. The top surface element 4 is provided for printing Above the unit 6. The shell 8 has a support portion extending from it. The upper part is located on this support portion. There is an empty space between the unit 4 and the printing unit 6, and this space _ 16 After the paper leaves the output device 14, it enters the temporary storage space of the paper. For example, if you leave from the side of the!? Printing unit 6, the space occupied by the multifunction printer 2 is minimized.

Description of the invention (4) = face 44. * The bottom surface 44 is clearly defined, and the structure of the early stage f is detailed below. The scanning unit 4 includes a main body 40, an upper cover 41, a window 42, and a scanning module 43. The glass window 42 is provided on the top surface of the body 40 -49: the top surface 45 2 is away from and faces the bottom surface 44. The original 3 ◦ placed on the glass view :, 二-二 Γ top cover 41 盍. The scanning module 43 moves back and forth in the main body 40 to perform scanning. In another design, a paper feed group (not shown) can be further provided on the upper cover 41 to feed the original onto the glass window 42 for scanning by the scanning mode 4 3. The light bulbs 18 can emit light to illuminate the entire paper temporary storage space 6. In this way, the user can clearly see the paper that is sufficiently illuminated in the paper temporary storage space 16. In the drawing, a light bulb 18 is provided on the bottom surface of the scanning unit 4. However, the bulb 18 may be provided in another appropriate position in the temporary storage space of the paper, such as on the front side of the support portion of the case 8. When the user does not observe the paper in the temporary storage space of the paper, the light bulb worker 8 is best not to emit light, so as not to waste power. Therefore, a sensor 20 is provided on the bottom surface of the scanning unit 4. This sensor 20 may be an optical sensor to sense whether the user = ^ whether to reach in to fetch the paper to move and thus cause the light bulb 18 to emit light ^ In another embodiment, a light emitter may be provided on the top surface of the printing unit 6 ( It is not depicted =) and a light receiver (not depicted) is provided on the bottom surface of the scanning unit 4 to receive light from the light emitter. When there is no paper in the paper temporary storage space, the light receiver receives the light from the light emitter, so that the light bulb 8 does not emit light. When there is paper in the paper temporary storage space, the light receiver does not receive the light from the light emitter, so that the light bulb 8 emits light. Of course, to save the power consumed by the sensor, a manual switch, such as a button, can be provided to turn the lamp 18 on and off. Alternatively, the light bulb 18 can be pressed by the user
