Remove Printhead Locator Assembly
Before starting, make sure you have deprimed the system
to prevent ink drips and spills. Turn Printer power OFF.
1. Remove the Control Panel Cover.
2. Remove Top Assembly Rear Cover.
3. Move the Printhead Lift Assembly to its lowest
position.
4. Disconnect wiring harnesses P1, P2001 and J20 and
Data Cables J50 and J60 from the MPCA. Cut wire
ties if necessary.
5. Disconnect the Ink Hoses
from the Peristaltic Pump
and the Dual Pinch Valve.
6. Through the access holes in
the Top Assembly Frame,
remove (4) screws (2 on
each side) securing the Lift
Belt Clamp Brackets to the
Lift Assembly [A].
7. Operator Side: Support
the Printhead Lift
Assembly if necessary so it
does not fall. Remove (4)
screws [B] securing the Lift
Assembly Retainer to the Top Assembly Frame.
8. Remove (2) Bearings [C] (1 screw each).

the Printer.
10. Install in reverse order. NOTE: Do not mix ink hoses!
Apply a light coating of white lithium grease to the track
followed by the metal rollers on the Printhead Lift

IMPORTANT: Align the Printhead Locator Assembly
with the Printer using a level. Make sure the Printer is
on a flat, level surface. Perform fine levelling of the
Printhead Locator by adjusting the Lift Belt Bracket on
the Non-Operator side of the Printer. Loosen the (2)
mounting screws [A] to move the Bracket up and down
slightly until the Printhead Locator Assembly is level in
the Printer. If the Printhead is not level it will cause
printing problems and not align with the Service Station
Capping Station correctly, which can affect Printhead service life.
Check/adjust tension on the Belt(s). See “Printhead Lift Assembly Belts Tension Adjustment” in the
Adjustments Section. System Test: Press Printhead Test.
