Replacement of Parts

Installing the Print Carriage Flex Cable

Step 1. Reattach the double flex connectors to the print carriage, gently pushing both ends of the black plastic fastener till it they are seated firmly in the slots. Snap the plastic retainer into position, with tweezers if necessary.

Step 2. Slide the remainder of the flex cable through the slots on the carriage chassis assembly, folding the flex cable as shown (require pictures to show how they are folded). Ensure that the folds are made within the insulated area to prevent abrasive damage to the cable.

Step 3. Attach the other end of the flex cable to the printer.

Step 4. Slide the carriage shaft back onto the carriage chassis assembly, mounting the print carriage mechanism.

Step 5. Reattach the flex clamp.

Step 6. Replace the drive belt by first looping the belt drive on the right around the drive motor axle, then tighten the slack on the right by sliding the idler assembly inwards till the belt loops around it.

Step 7. Replace the encoder strip, taking care not to touch the encoded portion of the strip itself, by hooking it on the right encoder snub, then carefully sliding it through the print carriage mechanism and latching it taut on the left.

Step 8. Reattach the stopper spring.

Step 9. Replace the left stopper shaft by placing it into the socket inverted, then rotating it clockwise till it snaps into position.

Step 10.Repeat the same for the right stopper shaft, rotating it anticlockwise into position.

Step 11.Replace the remaining components for the Sensor Assembly Housing (refer to the procedures in Installing the Sensor Assembly Housing from Replacement of Sensor Assembly Housing).
