    ????????????

    went into diagnostics
    pinch rollers up down sensor ok
    front and rear media detection ok

    y axis flap sensor…………. not working
    the flag/flap sensor is on the lower back of the head, you need to take the head off.
    I think if this doesn’t work on start up, you get a flashing led on the board near the usb connection.

    it is a photo sensor / light sensor, when the head goes near the pinch rollers, the sensor swipes along a channel in the roller feet, so it knows where they are – can set the media width
    the flaps cut the light beam, sending a 2 channel signal to the board.

    bought a close match sensor – don’t really know if the voltage is correct?
    and a soldering iron
    watch this space……….
