Encoder Strip Replacement Guide

1. First thing to do when replacing your encoder strip is to release the print head. Release
the print head like you normally would to perform your regular maintenance. Slide the
print head so it is in the middle of the machine.
2. Next step is to release the encoder strip from the right hand of the machine as seen
below:

Do this by lightly pulling on the end of the encoder strip to the right and pulling it off the
hook, towrds you.

3. Now release the encoder strip from the left hand side of the printer as seen below:
Pull the strip off the spring by pushing it towards the back of the printer and sliding it off.

4. Now notice where the encoder strip goes through the printer head. You will be running
your new encoder strip through this slot FYI. Pull the old encoder strip out
5. Re-attach the new encoder strip to the left hand spring. Do this by pushing the spring
back a little ways and vertically place the hole on the encoder strip through the spring.
Use the image below for an example:
6. Now run the encoder strip through the same slot you pulled the old encoder strip out
of. Before you do this, make sure you can read the numbers on the end of the encoder
strip (so the numbers face you, as in the final image of this document). Now attach the
encoder strip on the left hand side through the small hook.
7. Lastly attach the right hand side of the encoder strip on the right hand side of the
printer by pulling it over the hook, exactly like you did on the first step. Use the image
below as an example.
