Maintenance station service check
The maintenance station has two functions:
1. Cleans the printhead nozzles during the print operation.
2. When the printer is not in use, it seals the printhead to prevent
the nozzles from drying.

As the carrier moves to the right over the
maintenance station, a slot on the bottom of the
carrier engages a tab on the sled of the
maintenance station causing the cap to rise and
seal the printhead. Car rier movement to the le ft

A noisy or chattering motor or a motor that fails to
turn, can be caused by:
• An open or short in the motor
• An open or short in the motor driver on the
system board
• A bind in the paper feed mechanism
Check fo r motor pins shorted to the motor
housing. If you fi nd a shorted pin, repl ace the prin t
engine assembly. Go to “Print engine assembly
removal” on page 4-6.
With the paper feed motor cable disconnected
from the system board, check f or approx imately 20
ohms between pins 1 and 2 on the motor cable. If
correct, plug in the printer and check the voltage
reading on connector 251, pins 1 and 2 for
approximately 30 volts. If the voltage reading is
incorrect, replace the system board. Go to
“System board remo val” on page 4-10.
Although the paper feeds in a forw ard direction
only, the paper feed motor turns in two directio ns.
If the paper feed m otor turns in one direction only,
replace the system boar d. Go to “System board
removal” on page 4-10.
Binds in the paper feed motor or gear train can
cause intermittent false paper j am errors. Rem ove
the paper feed motor and check the shaft for
binds. Also check for loose or worn motor gear.
3GearsCheck for binds in the gear train and paper feed
mechanism by rotating the large feed roll by hand.
If you notice a bind, isolate it by removing one of
the small idler gears on t he inside of the left side
frame. If any worn or binding gears or rollers are
found, repl ace the print engine assembly. Go to

4. Rep a ir in fo r m a t i on
This chapter explains how to make adjustments to the printer and
how to remove defective parts.
CAUTION: Read the following before handling electronic parts.
When working on the printer, always unplug the printer from the
electrical outlet. High voltage is present in the power supply as long
as it is plugged into the electrical outlet.
Handling ESD-sensitive parts
Many electronic products use parts that are known to be sensitive t o
electrostatic discharge (ESD). To prevent damage to ESD-sensitive
parts, follow the instructions below in addition to all the usual
precautions, such as turning off power before removing logic boards:
• Keep the ESD-sensitive part in its original shipping container
(a special “ESD bag”) until you are ready to install the part into the printer.
• Mak e the few er po ssi b le movem ents with your body t o preven t an increase
of static electricity from clothing fibers, carpets, and furniture.
• Put th e E SD wri st strap on your w rist . C on nect the w ris t band to the system
ground point. This discharges any static electricity in your body to the
printer.
• Hold the ESD-sensitive part by its edge connector shroud (cover); do not
touch its pin s . If y ou are rem oving a plugga ble module , use t he correct tool.
• Do not place the ESD-sensitive part on the printer cover or on a metal
table; if you need to put down the ESD-sensitive part for any reason, first
put it into its special bag.
• Printer covers and metal tables are electrical grounds. They increase the
risk of damage because they make a discharge path from your body
through the ESD-sensitive part. (Large metal objects can be discharge
paths without being grounded.)
• Prevent ESD-sensitive parts from being accidentally touched by other
personnel. Install printer covers when you are not working on the printer,
and do not put unprotected ESD-sensitive parts on a table.
• If possible, keep all ESD-sensitive parts in a grounded metal cabinet
(case).
• Be careful in working with ESD-sensitive parts when cold weather heating
is used because low humidity increases static electricity.
