NovaJet 800 Series Service Manual

Damage may occur to the micrometer gauge if the Carriage is moved without lifting up on the mea- suring tip. This action could also take the microme- ter out of alignment and foul the results of the align- ment.

6.While lifting up the measuring tip of the micrometer, slide the Carriage to the left side of the stabilizer. 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.

7.Move the left end of the stabilizer bracket until the reading below is observed. Read only the RED numbers on the micrometer gauge.

For the NovaJet 850 printer adjust for a reading of 67 +/- 3. This equates to a head height of 0.065”.

NOTE

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

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

9.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.

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

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