Printhead removal, installation, and adjustment
See “Printhead assembly” on page 7-9 for the part number.
Service tip—Testing the new printhead
See “Printhead verification” on page 3-35 for quick way to verify that the existing printhead is failing 
before installing the new printhead. If the new printhead also fails, the existing printhead is probably 
working properly, so the system board is probably the failing component.

3.Remove the paper tray.

14.Remove the printhead alignment screw cover (E).
15.While still holding the printhead in place, loosen the printhead alignment screw (F) until the printhead 
comes out.
Warning:  Secure the printhead when loosening the printhead alignment screw. Failure to do this allows 
the printhead to fall out of the printer, potentially damaging the printhead. 
Install the printhead and replace parts
Warning:  
•When reinstalling the printhead, it is important to keep in mind that the printhead mounting screws should 
be initially tightened just enough to hold the printhead in the printer. The printer parts are installed 
with the printhead mounting screws loose so you can print the pages that will be used to align the black 
plane to the printer frame. This also allows the black skew adjustment to be adjusted with the printhead 
alignment screw. 
•Once the black skew is aligned, the mounting screws will be fully tightened, and the next steps of 
alignment can be completed.
1.When installing the printhead, visually center the printhead and center the hole in the frame (A).
