--Paper Sensors are photo sensors. Paper sensors consist of an actuator, a U-shaped photo interrupter, and circuitry. Sensors are tripped as the actuator swings against movement of paper and blocks the gap of the U. An actuator can be passive (governed by gravity) or spring-loaded.
--Note: Sensor failure can be either mechanical or electrical. When troubleshooting sensors, first confirm that the arm Photointerrupter or lever moves freely without snagging, that any springs are applying correct resistance, and that the actuator is not broken. Then check that all cable connections are secure. If you have eliminated mechanical issues, proceed with electrical troubleshooting.
