Part Replacement

6.8.1. Carriage Motor
Preparation
Follow the appropriate printer disassembly procedures for removing printer housings and accessing the
print bar.
Removal
1. Disconnect the carriage motor cable from the motor.
2. Place the print bar so the front is facing you (carriage and service station on the left with gear, pulley
and belts clearly visible).
3. Move the carriage to the center of the carriage path. This may require rotating the large gear on the
bottom of the service station to release the carriage lock.
4. While supporting the carriage motor, remove the two T8 screws that secure the carriage motor to the
carriage bar (see Figure 6.12.1 on next page).
5. Carefully remove the carriage motor.
6. Follow the above steps in reverse to replace the part.
Replacement Note:
Align the two tapped holes in the carriage motor with the openings in the print bar (see Figure 6.12.1).
