- Protect the paper output slot from exposure to excessive light.
Close the cover.
Pressing the Resume/Cancel button will exit the error without ink tank replacement, however, ink may run out during printing.
The service call error, indicating the waste ink absorber is full, is likely to occur soon.

- Make sure that the flexible cables and wires in the harness are in the proper position and connected correctly.
[See 3
-2. Special Notes on Repair Servicing, (1) Flexible cable and harness wiring, connection, for details.]
- Do not drop the ferrite core, as it may damage the core.
- Protect electrical parts from damage due to static electricity.
- Before removing a unit, after removing the power cord, allow the printer to sit for approx. 1 minute (for capacitor discharging to protect the logic board ass'y from damages).
- Do not touch the timing slit strip film and timing slit disk film. No grease or abrasion is allowed.
- Protect the units from becoming soiled with ink.
- Protect the housing from scratches.
- Exercise caution with the red screws, as follows:
i. The red screws of the paper feed motor may be loosened only at replacement of the paper feed motor unit (DO NOT loosen them in other cases). ii. DO NOT loosen the red screws on both sides of the main chassis, securing the carriage shaft positioning (they are not adjustable in servicing).
Notes on replacement
- Before removal of the logic board ass'y, remove the power cord, and allow for to sit approx. 1 minute (for discharge of capacitor's accumulated charges), to prevent damage 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 bottom case unit or the ink absorbers when replacing the logic board ass'y.
[See 3-3. Adjustment / Settings, (6) Service mode, for details.]
- The red screws securing the paper feed motor are allowed to be loosened. (DO NOT loosen any other red screws.)
- Upon contact with the film, wipe the film with ethanol.
- Confirm no grease is on the film. (Wipe off any grease thoroughly with ethanol.)
- Do not bend the film

3-3. Adjustment / Settings

(1) Paper feed motor adjustment
Perform the following adjustments when the paper feed motor unit is replaced:
1) When attaching the motor, fasten the screws so that the belt is properly stretched (in the direction indicated by the blue arrow in the figure below).
2) After replacement, be sure to perform the service test print, and confirm that no strange noise or faulty print operation (due to dislocation of the belt or gear, or out-of-phase motor, etc.) occurs.
Note: The red screws securing the paper feed motor may be loosened only at replacement of the paper feed motor unit. DO NOT loosen them in other cases.
(2) Gear phase adjustment
In attaching the lift transmission gear (QC1-4327), adjust the phase so that the protrusion of the lift transmission gear (QC1-4327) fits into the recess of the carriage shaft cam R (QC1-4282), as shown in the figure below.
