Adjustment & Replacement of Ribbon Gear Ass'y 2-1 Disassemble and assemble 1) Remove three screws which fix the Ribbon Gear Assy on the chassis as M2.5 x 6 2) Take out the synchronous belt from Ribbon Gear Ass'y...
Page 45
• Check the three screws which fix Ribbon Gear Ass'y on the chassis are slightly loosed. • Push the middle of Synchronous Belt by Tension gauge until slightly touching to other side of Synchronous Belt, and check the tensions within 250g ~ 300g.
Page 46
3) In case of assembling, Do reverse way of 2), 1) 3-2 Adjustment of Carriage Motor Assembly 1) Check the backrash of the mesh part between pinion gear of the carriage motor and right pulley by jogging horizontally the Printer Head, and adjust the carriage motor so sightly that backrash way not make even with minor force.
Page 47
4. Adjustment and Replacement of Home position Switch Ass'y 4-1 Disassemble and Assemble 1) Remove the M2.5x6 screw which fix the Home position Switch Ass'y to the chassis. 2) Resold the lead wires from Home position Switch terminals. 3) In case of assembling, do reverse way of 2), 1). 4-2 Adjustment of the Home position Switch 1) Lose slightly the M2.5x6 screw which fix the Home position Switch Ass'y to the chassis as possible...
Page 48
4) After fix the M2.5x6 screw firmly, check once more the location of left end of printed character which is within the specification. 5. Replacement and Adjustment of paper End Sensor 5-1 Disassemble and assemble 1) Take out the Leaf Switch Ass'y and M2.3x5 screw by loosing the screw as shown below.
Page 49
2) Insert the paper to print out and check the gap of the contact points of the Leaf Switch shall be more than 0.5mm (measured with thickness gauge). 6. Replacement of F.P.C Ass'y 1) Remove the Flexible Cable of the Printer Head from F.P.C cable Ass'y on Printer Head Holder.
