FreeJet Maintenance (Cont’d)

Monthly Maintenance (Cont’d)

4. Press the FUNCTION button once to return the printhead
back to the Wet Cap Station.

1. The Encoder Wheel is located behind the removable 
cover on the left rear side of the printer. This cover can 
be removed by opening the corner pins in each corner.

2. The corner pins on the rear encoder wheel cover can
be opened by pulling out the center of the pin.

This is the Encoder Wheel, the clear disk behind the rear encoder wheel cover on the left rear side of the printer.

How to Clean the Encoder Wheel

The Encoder Wheel is another key component that communicates the position of the carriage 
to the printer. Like the encoder strip, it is vital that this part stays clean to maintain the quality 
of the prints and the functionality of the printer. This will need to be cleaned using a clean 
lint-free cloth and 70% isopropyl rubbing alcohol.
