NovaJet 500/630/700 Series Service Manual

CAUTION

Use extreme care when performing this calibration on the NovaJet 505 printers. The actual head height that is to be achieved is 0.125” +/- 0.003”. The read- ing will only be correct if the gage rotated one complete turn before stopping at 17. If the head is adjusted for 0.025” instead of 0.125” head strikes and quality issues will be apparent.

NOTE

The actual measurement is different than the true head height due to the fact that the test cartridge does not con- tain a jet plate assembly. A difference had to be calcu- lated to compensate for the lack of a jet plate assembly on the test cartridge.

9.Tighten the screw on the left side of the stabilizer.

10.While lifting up the measuring tip of the micrometer, slide the Carriage to the right until the next stabilizer screw is lined up. Position it as close to the screw as possible and drop the measuring tip onto the platen. Do this a couple of times to ensure an accurate reading.

11.Move the left end of the stabilizer bracket until a correct reading is observed. Read only the RED numbers on the micrometer gauge.

12.Tighten the screw on the stabilizer that is next to the Carriage.

13.Continue performing steps 10 through 12 until all four of the stabilizer screws have been adjusted.
