Croma24 Service Manual
Printer problems can be caused by an accumulation of dirt or other contamination on the slide shaft. This contamination may lead to drag on the carrier. Extreme drag results in a “carrier axis failure” fault and will stop the carrier motion. These problems may be eliminated by maintaining and cleaning the slide shaft at intervals determined by the environmental conditions. Do not use any lubrication.
To clean the slide shaft:
1.Remove the power cord.
2.Raise the middle cover.
3.Moisten a clean cloth or paper wipe with isopropyl alcohol.
4.Wipe the length of the slide shaft with the moistened cloth or wipe.
5.Manually move the carrier assembly from side to side.
6.Wipe the shaft again to remove any deposits left from the carrier.
7.Lower the cover and reconnect the power cord, perform the PRIME plot. Be sure that the carrier moves freely over the slide shaft.
Service Station Cleaning
Ink and dust may build up on the service station, resulting in contamination which may smear the prints. The service station is cleaned as follows:
1.Disconnect the power cord and interface cable.
2.Raise the middle cover.
3.Carefully move the carrier toward the center of the printer.
