More images of the printer carriage. This time completely removed from the plastic housing of the original body. The device is starting to take on a much more machine-like characteristic as its old skin becomes stripped away.
Closer side details of the printer head.
A shot of the underbelly of the print head. Here you can clearly see the stepper motor (the golden cylinder near the top of the image) which controls the hammer action of the print head.
Another shot of the underbelly. Pictured here is the stepper motor (the silver cylinders at the bottom of the image with wires extending from it) which controls the movement of the print head across the guide rail (across the page, essentially).
The circuit board removed.
Here is the bottom tray of the original casing. All that remains is the power supply. Yes, I did cut myself.
Detail of the power supply still in the bottom tray.
Couple of details of the power supply completely removed from the bottom tray.
Everything is now removed from the original casing.
