CHECKING THE INK TUBES
Move the carriage all the way back and forth to make sure the tubes do not
come loose from the open section of the tube guide when the CR is moving.
ATTACHING THE CR CIRCUIT BOARD
1. Secure the CR circuit board assembly to the cable connection plate with
two screws.
2. Slide the flat core pieces onto the two printhead FFCs and connect the
FFCs to the circuit board.
3. Insert the other 4 connectors into the corresponding CR board connectors.
CN9 is not used.
CONNECTING THE CARRIAGE FFCS
1. Make sure the FFCs are properly overlapped; the one with the shorter end
should be underneath and the one with the longer end should be on top.
2. Slide the ferrite core pieces onto the FFCs.
3. Put the FFCs on the tube guide fixing plate, and make sure the fold of the
FFCs lines up with the FFC connectors on the CR board. Also, make sure
there is no gap between the tube guide, FFCs, and protective film sheets.
4. Attach the new cable support.
