Installation

Install the printing mechanism in reverse order of removal.

Notes:

Be sure to connect all connectors to the control board.

Use cable clamps for the line feed motor, space motor, and sensor cables.

Put the tractor paper-end sensor cable in the recess of the bottom cover.

The sensor cable must not hang over the bottom feed slot of the bottom cover.

The SP motor cable and the LF motor cable must not touch the transistor elements on the control board so that

cables can not be caught between the control board and the bottom of the mechanism.
