10. To replace the carriage assembly or drive belt, reverse the preceding process being very careful not to
damage the flex cable when inserting the cable through the chassis assembly. Also, use care when
installing the encoder strip, drive belt, and flex cable, as they must be installed properly to avoid rub-
bing against any other components. If the drive belt, encoder strip, or flex cable rub against any com-
ponents in the operation of the print bar, premature failures will occur.
Note:
If the purpose of disassembly is to replace the flex circuit with the Flex Circuit Assembly Kit, follow the
instructions provided with the repair kit.
