Siemens T-1000 wire cable

[Fred55]

I am trying to restore a T-1000Z.
the printhead slides on a carriage bar, and uses a thin metal cable to pull the printhead from side to side.
The cable is broken, and I don't know how to replace it.
Where can I get this cable ?
Are there any diagrams on how to restring this cable ?

Thanks, Fred

Hello Fred,

The print head is moved with a belt, thesteel cable has another function ( I think to reverse the ribbon at end of travel) In any case, replacement of this cable should not be difficult.

I have written on Greenkeys in answer to you as well.

I will attach images of the spare printer assembly I have here tomorrow morning.

Hope this helps
Sean

Fred,

Please see description from the service manual - sadly no useable images for restringing.
