Collision noise of a sheet with guides in sheet-handling mechanism is getting louder with the higher sheet feeding speed in printers or copy machines. In order to design silent sheet-handling mechanism efficiently, it is necessary to predict and evaluate these collision noises analytically. Therefore as the first step in analytical approach of the dynamic behavior of a sheet near guides, Absolute Nodal Coordinate method which consider Rayleigh damping and fluid drag between flexible media - guide was proposed to analyze dynamic behavior of sheets. Then, effectiveness was validated by comparing with the result of experiment. The comparison of ANC method and multi link model analysis as a conventional analytical method was conducted and the result also showed high accuracy of ANC method.
