Service part Notes on replacement Adjustment/settings Operation check
Logic board assy
(QM3-1691)
- Before removal of the logic
board ass'y, remove the power
cord, and allow for approx. 1
minute (for discharge of
capacitor's accumulated
charges), to prevent damages
to the logic board ass'y.
- Before replacement, check the
ink absorber counter value. If
the value is 7% or more, also
replace the ink absorber when
replacing the logic board ass'y.
If the ink absorber is not
replaced, then set the ink
absorber counter value to the
replaced new logic board
ass'y.
After replacement:
1. Initialize the EEPROM.
2. Reset the ink absorber
counter.
If the ink absorber is
not replaced, set the
ink absorber counter
value to the replaced
new logic board ass'y,
while referring to 4.2,
"Service Mode" below.
3. Set the destination in
the EEPROM.
4. Perform the print head
alignment in the user
mode.
