Haven't thought about the details yet, but i would have the paper leading
edge detector applied directly to that table.
If possible i plan to have this table engaged with the feed rollers all
the time - i don't see this as a sheet you feed like thick paper, i see
this as a flatbed printer - gantry style.
If it takes some fooling of the mechainsm (sensors, taking over control of
motors at times), then that's what it takes...
