Caution
In Step 3, while prying off the tailpiece cover, be careful not to
damage the four sensor wires near the lower-left corner of the cover.
3.
If in place, remove the snap-fit tailpiece cover (pry the lower snaps
free and then hinge up the cover). Loosen the three tailpiece
mounting screws one full turn.
4.
Using the X-axis belt, gently slide the printhead about 3 inches away
from its home position. Then push the tailpiece's slide ramp to the
right (toward the home position) to tilt the printhead away from the
drum. Then move the printhead so it is centered on the “dimple” at
the right end of the back tension blade.
Note
Perform Steps 5 and 6 as quickly as possible to prevent distorted
settings due to thermal expansion.
5.
Position the tailpiece's slide ramp to its left-most position (toward the
ink loader). The printhead should move toward the drum.
