3.3 Troubleshooting for Individual Units
3.3.1 Main Component Checking Point
The following components can be checked with a simple measurement tool, such as a
multi-meter, easily.
Motors
Note “*”: Set the meter to ohms. Then disconnect the Motor from the Main Board and check it
with printer power off.
Printhead
Test Method : For example, place one lead on pin C1 and the other lead on
Test pin 1 to check #1 pin of the Printhead solenoid. Test
pin numbers match the printhead solenoid (dot wire)
numbers.
NOTE: Set the meter to ohms. Then disconnect the Motor from the Main Board
and check it with printer power off.
Specifications : 8.19 ± 0.8 Ω (at 25°C)
Note : 1~18: Wire numbers (Refer to “Figure 2-3“ in Chapter 2 for wire numbers.)
C1~ C8: Common terminals
T: Thermistor terminal
N: Not used
(The contact of the connector and FFC is positioned at the bottom side of the
connector.)

(CN13)
1 and 3,
2 and 4
Place one lead on pin 1 (pin2) and the other
lead on pin3 (pin 4) on each of the test pins
to check the two motor phases.

(at 25 °C per
one phase)
CR Motor
(CN12)
Common pin: 5
Test pins: 1, 2, 3
and 4
Place one lead on pin 5 and the other lead on
each of the 4 test pins to check the two motor
phase.
