PRINT HEAD REPLACEMENT

If the print head becomes damaged or wears out, it can be easily removed and replaced without having to make critical adjustments. Before replacing the print head, check the head counter values by printing a test pattern.

1Switch off the printer and disconnect the power supply cord.

2Open/remove the top, right, and front housing covers.

NOTE: Figures 10-1, 10-2, and 10-3 of the Daigrams & Schematics section provides guidance on housing cover, media, and ribbon removal.

3Remove ribbon and media to provide free access to print head (1, Figure 7-14).

4Turn thumb screw (2) located on the top side print assembly (3) to release print head (1).

5Disconnect the two wiring harnesses from print head (1) and lift away.

NOTE: It is recommended that print head mounting plate (4) be removed from the damaged print head (1) and saved as a spare. The mounting plate may be removed by removing two screws (5).
