NOTE: The above details is intended to be helpful for you to determine if the "Belt" is NOT attached to the print unit. I would NOT recommend doing this since it was not an easy and/or logical repair - even though it did function properly after completing and allowing the glue to dry. Proper alignment is definitely required for the printer to work properly I did this and the attachment area had part of it broke (or missing) so I applied special type glue to repair - AFTER determining the EXACT place on the belt to be attached to the print unit. Normally, the belt is in a specific holder on back of the print unit and is rather complicated to try to work on this to make repairs. If it does NOT move in sync with the print unit, it is most likely NOT attached to the print unit. If it is, it may just be positioned wrong for the normal travel left to right. You could press the ink change button and allow the print unit to move to the change area - then, unplug the printer from the AC wall plug - you can now move the print unit "gently" back and forth (left and right) to check if the belt is attached to the print unit. However, This MAY or may NOT be the problem with your printer. Also, the belt would move some but was not in synchronization with the print unit - since it was not attached.
The print unit would move back and forth but would hit (bang) against the left side. I had an issue a few years ago with one of the previous Epson Model printers where this Belt came loose (dis-attached) from the unit holding the print cartridges. I believe the function of that belt is basically the "Timing Belt" for the print unit as it travels back and forth across the carriage movement. I do not have the 1400 but most desktop Epson printers have similar "ribbons as you have described" that when functioning properly are attached to the back assembly holding the ink Cartridges and has the print head underneath.
#Epson stylus photo 1400 not printing how to
Anyone know how to fix this sort of issue? Dunno what started to cause this.
It is getting pushed under the print head as the print head moves across instead of behind. Opened the top and saw that the ribbon cable (not sure if that's the correct term for it) that's connected to the print head is not moving normally. The scanner, printer, copier work really well and I just need to figure out if there are easier instructions online on how to fax.Tried to print something with my Epson 1400 the other day and heard a funny noise when the print head was moving back and forth. Otherwise, it all multiple slots for different memory cards and is EnergyStar approved. I have had difficulty with the Fax option though, I never figured out how to fax from the All-in-One. I have it plugged into a desktop but use the network to print from my other computers around the house, and that was easy too, all it required was installing "Network Drivers" instead of the regular and naturally Epson makes it very easy for you to make the right choice. The printer has a really good design, it is efficient in ink usage and does so much! There might be a lot of buttons on there but all are clearly marked and when instructions display on the screen, which can be titled up almost 90 degrees, they let you know exactly which buttons to press. I bought the Epson Stylus CX9400Fax almost two years ago and I'm loving it.
