Notes on replacement*1
-Before removal of the logic board ass'y, remove the power cord, and allow for approx. 1 minute (for discharge of capacitor's accumulated charges), to prevent damages to the logic board ass'y.
-Before replacement, check the waste ink amount (by service test print or EEPROM information print). If the waste ink amount is 7% or more, also replace the ink absorber kit when replacing the logic board ass'y.
[See 3-3. Adjustment / Settings, (5) Service mode, for details.]
-The red screws securing the paper feed motor are allowed to be loosened. (DO NOT loosen any
Adjustment / settings
After replacement:
1.Initialize the EEPROM.
2.Reset the waste ink counter.
3.Set the destination in the EEPROM.
4.Correct the CD / DVD and automatic print head alignment sensors.
