Figure 3-13. Slide Shaft Profile Adjustment.

For example: If the Left = 0, Right = +0.004”, then the center should

be adjusted to + 0.002”. This will ensure a smooth plane of travel for the carriage assembly. There are no adjustments on either end of the shaft in all models.

Head Height Alignment Procedure

Perform this procedure only when the encoder strip stabilizer has been removed from the Y-Arm or whenever the alignment is in question (carriage head strikes occur or deadband calibrations cannot be achieved).

The head height alignment procedure is to ensure that the correct amount of distance exists between the cartridge jet plate and the Platen. See Figure 3-14.
