Re: T520 Carriage Jam
Clean the encoder strip. Only use a damp paper towel or coffee filter. Do not use a solvent or alcohol, just water.
If that doesn't do it, enter the support menus, and under diagnostics is a Carriage Servo test. If this fails it should tell you whether it's the carriage motor or the carriage assembly. (42.1:10 is the motor, 02:10 is the carriage.)
