Carriage Bearings

Hi. I have one big problem with my printer, where one of the carriage bearings is broken. I need to know how to change the carriage bearings (8 units). This information does not come in the service manual (at least, not in the one i have).
The printer cannot work without a new bearing, so this information is very urgent.
Thanks

it is lot of work. basically you will have to take head carriage out of the printer.

most important thing in this process is to take care of metal belt (that you don't "hurt" it)!

all other is time consuming!!


bearings you can buy in specialized shop in your town.
only thing is that it has to have this specification:

- Diameter of inside: 4 mm

- Diameter of outside 12 mm

- Width: 4 mm

- Metal sealed type

- Typical static bearable pressure: 347N

- Typical dynamic bearable pressure: 959N



Sorry for this late reply - wife ban me from internet....
