FOLLOW-UP INFO: While checking on another adjustment, I ran across some info that might be interesting [or not]. EPSON SAYS: "You must perform the parallelism adjustment after replacing or removing the carriage guide shaft, or if you change the setting of the parallism adjustment bushings. This adjustment sets the standard distance from the printhead to the paper surface."... Basically this means if you remove the carriage rod, to remove the print head assy for cleaning, you must do this adjustment. Of couse this info is for an Epson trained tech to follow and is fairly complicated to do the procedure, even then. As with any info given out by a manufactor, you may not always have to do it, but they say you do. Unfortunatly I cannot [legally] release the adjustment procedure and have not had to actually do it myself, as I've not needed to go that far in repairing carriage problems... I KNOW THAT THIS IS REALLY NOT VERY HELPFULL, BUT IT MAY POINT OUT THAT AN EASIER WAY, MAY POSSIBLY SAVE YOU TIME IN THE LONG RUN AND POSSIBLY ADDITIONAL PROBLEMS... Denny Conway
