Disconnect the printhead cables from J12 and J8 on the controller board. Turn the printer on with the front door closed. On the controller board, verify +5 V dc on pin 10 at J12 and +5 V dc on pins 1, 2, and 3 at J8. Verify grounds on pins 2, 4, and 7 at J12 and on pin 4 at J8. • If voltages or grounds are incorrect, then check the controller board. See "Controller board service check" on page 2-26 for more information. • If voltages are correct, then replace the printhead (comes with cables).
