Epson CR Timing Encoder Scale Strip Belt for L1800 1390 1430
$15.99
This timing strip can be an effective solution to issues such as the printer skipping, blank vertical lines appearing in prints, and the printhead smashing to the left, among other problems.
Please note that the strip features a black "triangle" on the left side, which should be installed in an upright position according to Epson, pointing upwards. However, we've seen many Epson OEM printers are installed downward. We haven't seen a single one installed upward.
It's important to mention that the strip does not include a spring. Just a clear strip, not other tools included.
While this strip can help resolve some issues, it might not be the sole solution. It's also advisable to inspect the encoder sensor, sensor cable, and mainboard to fully diagnose your printer's problems.
