Installation Notes
- Turn off printer power before installation.
- Align the sensor window parallel to the encoder strip.
- Keep a 0.3–0.6 mm distance between sensor and strip.
- Ensure cable connection is secure to prevent signal interference.
- After installation, perform a test print to verify carriage movement.
Note: Confirm your printer model and required sensor type (H9720 or H9730) before purchasing. Both versions are compatible with standard inkjet printer systems.
