Note :

“O” indicates that the adjustment must be carried out. “---” indicates that the adjustment 
is not required. If you have removed or replaced multiple parts, make sure to check the 
required adjustments for the all parts. And when multiple adjustments must be carried 
out, be sure to carry out them in the order given in the “Priority” row.

Note "*1" :When only removing the ASF Assy, you do not need to perform the adjustment. In 

that case, mark the installing positions before removing them, and make sure to align 
the markings when installing. See 

"4.4.6 ASF Assy" 

(p106)

.

"*2" :Replacing the Waste Ink Tray Assy is necessary when resetting waste ink pad counter.
"*3"  :When only removing the Carriage Shaft, you do not need to perform the adjustment. 

In that case, mark on the Parallelism Adjust Bushing (Left/Right) before removing 
them, and make sure to align the markings when installing. See 

"4.4.5 Carriage Shaft 

/ Carriage Unit"

When the EEPROM Data Copy cannot be made for the main 
board that needs to be replaced, the Waste Ink Tray Assy must 
be replaced after replacing the main board with a new one.

After all required adjustments are completed, use the “Final 
check pattern print” function to print all adjustment patterns 
for final check. If you find a problem with the printout 
patterns, carry out the adjustment again.

When using a new main board for replacing the Printer 
Mechanism, the Initial setting must have been made to the 
main board.
