or 3 instalments of LKR 933.34 with Koko (includes a 12% Koko service charge)
Description
The Encoder Strip for Canon PIXMA E410 / E480 Series is a precision replacement carriage-positioning strip designed for compatible Canon inkjet multifunction printers. Also known as the encoder film, timing strip, carriage encoder strip or linear scale, this transparent strip contains fine reference markings that are read by the printer's carriage-position sensor to determine the exact horizontal position of the FINE cartridge holder during printing. If the encoder strip becomes dirty, smeared with grease or ink, scratched, stretched, detached or physically damaged, the printer may experience misaligned printing, distorted characters, vertical-line defects, abnormal carriage movement, knocking or grinding noises, or carriage-position related errors such as Support Code 5100. Canon documentation confirms that the printer uses the encoder film to detect the position of the FINE cartridge holder and that contamination can prevent correct position detection. Replacing a physically damaged encoder strip can help restore accurate carriage positioning, smoother carriage movement and proper print alignment. Because this is a delicate precision component, it should be handled only by the edges, installed without bending or stretching, and correctly routed through the carriage encoder sensor. Professional installation is recommended.
