To replace the platen roller and platen roller gear

1.Loosen the motor as necessary to mesh the platen roller gear with the motor pinion gear and TTR drive gear/pulley upon reassembly.

2.Install the washer removed in Step 6 and a new retaining E-ring on the platen roller and insert it through the main deck plate and into the washer removed in Step 4 and the platen drive gear.

3.Reassemble the tear bar and bar support, and then install the lower outboard plate, securing the tear bar assembly and the rollers.

Note: Use the roller alignment tool during reassembly to align the outboard plate.

4.Secure the platen drive gear with a new retaining ring and slide the motor forward to mesh the motor pinion gear with the platen drive gear and the liner drive gear/pulley. Turn the TTR roller drive gear to check for proper gear engagement and tighten the motor mounting screws.

5.Reattach the front bezel cover. Ensure that the media access door operates properly (snaps firmly shut) after the front bezel cover is installed.

6.Reload media (and ribbon if used) and lower the printhead.

7.Install the electronics cover, the media cover, and the power cord, and check the printer for proper operation.
