ET-8550 Scanner Drive Gear – Drives Scanner Belt and CIS Unit
$19.99
Restore proper scanner movement with this Scanner Drive Gear for the Epson ET-8550. This gear takes force from the scanner motor and transfers it to the scanner belt, which moves the scanner CIS unit across the scanner bed during scanning.
If this gear is worn, cracked, damaged, or missing, the scanner may not move correctly. That can cause scanning failure, abnormal noise, incomplete scans, or scanner carriage movement problems.
Designed for the Epson EcoTank ET-8550, this part is an important part of the scanner drive system.
What this part does:
Takes force from the scanner motor
Drives the scanner belt
Moves the scanner CIS unit during scanning
Supports proper scanner travel across the scanner bed
Replaces a damaged or missing scanner drive component
Common symptoms of a bad scanner drive gear:
Scanner does not move during scan
Scanner movement is jerky or noisy
Incomplete scans
Scanner carriage gets stuck
Gear teeth are cracked, stripped, or broken
Package includes:
1 x ET-8550 Scanner Drive Gear
Important notes:
This listing is for the scanner drive gear only
Intended for use with the Epson ET-8550
Please verify your printer model before ordering
Installation may require partial disassembly of the scanner unit
If your ET-8550 scanner is not moving properly during scans, this replacement Scanner Drive Gear can help restore the connection between the scanner motor, scanner belt, and CIS unit.

Best thing ever!! i used to put cleaning solution in the capping station with a syringe/hose then had to suck out f the wast line with a syringe.... over and over until the capping station was clean. maybe up to 10 times. now i just use maybe 1 or 2 - 30ml syringes full of water and the pump cleans it out so good.... then I put capping solution, place printhead over capping station and turn on the back of the machine. thats it. when i print again, usually next day, I pull from waste tank a few times until I get ink, then i run 1 head cleaning , print a test strip and usually good to go. I sometimes print a 2nd test strip. SO MUCH easier to use this little pump. so glad I bought it.

This is a must have modification to save time troubleshooting. You will need to download Kevin's capping station video to disassemble the capping station. A definite must. You will also need a few other connections to hook this up. All parts are linked in his videos. Pro tip. Have patience and go slow. This modification will save you from a lot of headaches . I did this mod on Procolored L1800 about a year old . Thanks Kevin.
