Printer Mechanism Handling Precaution
When lifting the printer, hold parts shown in the figure below to prevent the frame from deforming.
- Do not touch the PF Scale with bare hands or damage it.
- If the Printer Mechanism is tilted leftward about 15°, the PF Scale hits against the desk surface and can break. After removing the Printer Mechanism, take extra care to protect the PF Scale.
- When removing the Waste Ink Tube, take care not to contaminate the printer and surroundings with ink.
- Extra care must be exercised not to scratch or damage the Waste Ink Tube.
Pull out the Waste Ink Tube by hand.
- Release the Waste Ink Tube from the groove of the Waste Ink Tray.
- Release the CR Motor Cable from the two ribs of the Waste Ink Tray
- Disconnect the connector of the CDR Guide Sensor.
- Remove the five screws and remove the Printer Mechanism.
When installing the Printer Mechanism, be careful of the following:
- Wipe off any ink on the joint portion of the Waste Ink Tube before reconnecting the tube. Ink on the joint portion makes the tube likely to get disconnected.
- Insert the Waste Ink Tube over the tube of the Waste Ink Tray until the top end of the Waste Ink Tube contacts with the rib.
- Match the positioning holes with guide pins (two pairs) shown.
- Tighten the screws in the order given.
- Make sure the Waste Ink Tube or cables are not pinched between the Printer Mechanism and the Housing Lower.
- Route the CDR Guide Sensor Cable through the opening.
