- To remove the carriage unit, pull it out of position keeping the carriage unit level with care not to harm the linear scale. Flaws on the linear scale could result in

malfunctioning.

- After detaching the joint between the ink tube unit and the ink tube of the ink tank unit, the joint might become easy to come off by the ink that has adhered to it.

In that case, please wash the joint by alcohol and remove the adhering ink.

b) Mounting the carriage belt

To install the carriage belt, put in the point of the belt to the interior of the groove [1], and have all the cogs of carriage belt [3] engaged with belt stopper [2].

c) Note on replacing the carriage unit and the multi sensor

When either carriage unit or multisensor has been replaced, be sure to replace the multisensor reference plate as well.

d) Action to take after replacing the carriage unit and the multi sensor

Because the distance between the multi sensor (in the carriage unit) and the nozzles (in each printhead) is varied from one unit to another, the printer has its optical

axis corrected and paper gap adjustment sensor gain and color calibration adjusted prior to shipment. When the carriage unit or multi sensor has been replaced,

they should require adjustment.

Execute service mode under the following conditions to launch automatic adjustment:

1) Optical axis correction

- Service mode: SERVICE MODE > ADJUST > PRINT PATTERN > OPTICAL AXIS

Media type: Gloss photo paper

2) Paper gap adjustment

- Service mode: SERVICE MODE > ADJUST > GAP CALIB.
