Paper paths
The 4247 Model Z03 has 2 front-loading push tractor paper paths.
Printhead
The 4247 Model Z03 print head is a 18-wire moving ruby print head capable of printing at speeds of up to
1100 characters per second in Fast Draft mode. The 4247 Model Z03 print head includes two connectors not
found on some earlier model print heads. One connector drives the carriage encoder optical sensor. The second
connector, that may be present, might also have a 12-pin ribbon cable plugged into it. This connector and cable
are not used by the 4247 Model Z03 18-wire print head. AFTA service check and adjustment procedures for the
Z03 are similar with earlier models.
Printhead mask
The 4247 Model Z03 print head mask is an easy-change metal spring attached to the carriage by two
easy-access screws.
Ribbon cartridge
The 4247 Model Z03 ribbon is specifically designed for the faster print speeds of the 4247 Model Z03 printer. The
ribbon cartridge and ribbon support brackets are keyed to prevent earlier model ribbons from being used on this
printer. The ribbon cartridge is common for 4247 model X03 and Z03 printers. Use part number 57P1743 when
ordering a replacement ribbon cartridge.
Test & Diagnostics
The 4247 Model Z03 T&Ds are similar to T&Ds found on earlier models. The T&D numbering scheme has
changed on this model, as have the test names displayed on the operator panel (due to the 2 line by 24 character
display) and the T&Ds instructions (due to new button designations).
