Plotter boots just fine and comes to READY. Only when trying to load media (roll in my case) will it crash with the 79:04 code.
Things tried:
- Reloading firmware
- Cleaned the blue line area
- Cleaned the encoder strip
- Oiled the carriage rod pads using the oil in the PM kit (they were bone dry)
- Removed the printheads, then, installed them once the plotter came to READY
- Ran the blue line calibration. PASSED
- Tried running the carriage diag, but, it hasn't been implemented (WTF!? Why have the option if the diag isn't available?)
Plotter history:
2016 - Replaced the carriage PCA and flex cables for printhead(s) not being detected
2017 - Replaced the belt
2018 - Faulty PH found
2019 (current ticket) - so far had to replace the cutter
Was reading through docs on CSN and came across a document talking about the OMAS sensor. It was talking about 50 errors, image quality issues and paper loading issues.
Has anyone had this issue and solved it? I am thinking either the OMAS sensor needs cleaning (which I didn't think about when I was there) or maybe the Line Sensor? Couldn't run the Line Sensor diag unless media was loaded.
Plotter boots just fine. Go to load paper:
- Open window
- Lift the blue handle
- Push paper though
- Line up with the blue line
- Close blue handle
- Close window
- Carriage goes from service station to middle of the plotter, back to the right, back to the middle, back to the right, back to the middle and then throws the error. So, three times.
Thanks all!
