HP 370 Bad Trailing Cable - Help

Hey Gang,

I've been fighting a bad trailing cable for years on one of my 370s. Thankfully through various adjustments to the cable I have been able to band-aid it along, but it's finally done. I bought the replacement cable online for 250.00. The replacement of the cable went well with no issues - but now the printer won't print. It will start up and run as normal, but will not print. Do I need to reset something in the service menu for this cable to work?

Thank you for the help!

 

The machine doesn’t throw an error, but doesn’t print. Before the machine prints it will run the "checking printer" self test. During this process something isn't passing and the printer cancels the print.

I've pinned out the new cable and the OEM cable, they both pin-out the same. Except that my OEM trailing cable has broken apart and has high resistance numbers on the connections as it's frayed, cracked and over all just sad.

 

Thanks for the reply. You're saying that you reversed the cable? Great minds. I tried that ,but my OEM cable is too far gone.

 

You got one? lol
