Installation Notes
- Power off and unplug the printer before service.

- Run carriage initialization and a test print to verify motion and registration.
Note: If the belt, pulley, or encoder strip shows wear, replacing them together with the motor will help restore optimal performance.

Buying Notes
- This part should be selected by machine revision, connection style, and physical fit, not by title similarity alone.
- If your printer has multiple board, cable, or motor revisions, compare the old part directly before ordering.
- For critical electronics or motion parts, professional installation is recommended after fitment is confirmed.
