Hi Jim, thanks for your reply
the code is 86.01 ... we have a new encoder arriving today , the problem is we can't see how it should go from the manual images, we need someon who has this machine to see if it looks correct how we have placed it back in the machine, as a part fell out when we opened the left handside of the printer to take the damadged encoder out.
At first the orginal encoder was damamdged and the glue had come off, so we tried to glue it using high tem glue, adhesive tape..but after that is keprt saying the code 86.01.. I have the manual and tried everything it said, and it still wouldn't move on.So we have the new part coming today, but it's the putting it back in the machine, we can't see properly how it should lok when it goes in, on the left side.I have attached an image of how we have the old one and wanted to see if anyone could check it looks correct how we have it , so when we put new one in we won't damadge that one ..hope that all makes sense
thanks kerrie
