This was extremely helpful thank you, replacing this part seems to have fixed my plotter. My service station has a fan mounted in the bottom which you don't mention in the video, it was easy to figure out but thought I'd mention this omission for others making this repair. The fan takes a bit of wiggling but just pops out with careful leverage, no screws, and then pops back in the same way to the reconditioned service station (pay attention to how it and the wire are aligned when you remove it from the old part).
Hey Bob, found your youtube video most helpful! When I got back from lunch yesterday our Designjet 800 had quit working and was showing error 21:10. Watched your 13 minute video on how to repair it, ordered the service station at 1:16pm on next day delivery, it arrived by 10:11am and had it installed and the plotter back working by 10:30am. My service tech would not have even made it to our office by then and the cost would have been in the $600 to $800 range for the repair. Outstanding service and delivery on your part!!! I will definitely be purchasing repair parts from you in the future!
Thank you for the instructions. In my case I had ink all over the inside of my HP800. I took out the service station and wiped down everything with very damp paper towels, gently. I put it back together and no errors. Warning!! You can always run the risk of damaging a plotter if not done by a professional. I ran the risk and it worked.
Bob, I wanted to thank you for this very helpful video in getting my plotter back up and running! it certainly took some effort but your guided video made it much easier to tackle. I greatly appreciate you, sir!
Thanks for the advice. I cleaned the ink from the wheel and pulled the pin connections and reconnected them. That cleaned the corrosion at it works great. Great job. You've saved me lots of time and money over the last few years. My 12 year old plotter works great.
Outstanding video. The cause in my particular case as with many others I'm sure was the big wheel on the left. What happens like you said is that the ink accumulates this preventing a smooth spin. Once I cleaned out the main wheel you can hear it and feel the difference. Worked right after although my hands were black after.
Bob, your videos are invaluable! Thank you so much for your help. As a small business, it has been helpful to be able to repair our own plotter ... twice (belt replacement, service station replacement). Please keep up the good work!
Hello Bob, i have a Design jet 500 i had a problem with my mac not seeng the printer i re installed the driver without success, now its coming up with the vault 21:10 do you think the two will be related as i don't want to spend to much money on the printer ordering the service station if i still have a problem with the computer seeing the printer.
Mr. Bob how are you dear you are doing great job! Actually i need a new service station can you send me to Pakistan. if you can than what's the procedure....?
Good information here! My project for next week. Just curious, what were the rebuild design changes you made on the service station? Will they benefit the average user like myself? My printer that I acquired for free, will get light use. Thanks!
Hi John, I appreciate your curiosity. We stiffen the wiper tray actuator arm (grey swiveling piece on the side of the assembly), increase backlash in the wiper drive gears, so the teeth are less likely to cause the motor to seize, and we sand smooth a couple of spots that tend to cause rough motion of the wiper tray. I'd say lack of 21:10 error can benefit just about any user. :) Thanks for the comment!

HELP, I have a part that I found after I reassembled my printer. It looks sort of like the carriage break discussed at point 8:48 in the video but mine is still installed? It has a catch that suggested that it is spring loaded. I can't find a sprint though. It is gray, sory of "V" or "A" shaped and has a round disc shape on one corner. The printer works fine for the monment but I suspect at some point this will be an issue. Please help.
Thanks for the informative video. I bought the refurbished station but still get the error code ... ALSO come up with a SEVERE ERROR: 0x40d001c, task:tMech, file: pumpcntr 1.c, Line:1382 message. Any idea what this might be about ... a deep dive on net only yielded russian comments (translation was asking question about this code - no answer)
Hi Bob, great video, thank you. Can I ask what you call that part at the 10min mark? I keep getting error code 21:10 and it seems to be linked to this part. Thanks
It is possible but messy and there is a risk of not getting it back together correctly. LPS refurbished service stations are modified in 2 ways to prevent future failures. My recommendation is to get the LPS refurb.
@@LPSshowsyouhow I would be happy to use your services, but I live in Russia. Maybe you have a video showing the process of restoring a service station?
Hello Bob, do you have a video on the data cable which connects to the small interconnect board and the electronics module! So I can replace the data cable, I purchased from LPS Computer Co., for the continued error 21:10 if this does not work I think I`m done buying all these different parts! Service station has been replaced with yours and others and still makes the noise at the motor and throws system error 21:10 up. I have purchased the interconnect Ribbon Cable from LPS REFURBISHED good for one year with no instructions. Can you help me out please!
Hey Bob, This Interconnect Ribbon data cable which connects to the small interconnect board and the electronics module appears to be very complicated as if I have to take the entire machine apart? any videos please. Thanks
I replaced the service station with a new one but I am still receiving a error 21.10. It goes through the initializing phase then the service station makes some noises like something wants to move and doesn't then throws the error code.

Hello Bob, we are having the 21:10 error on Our 800. We have tried to solve this with 4 different service stations ( all refurbished ) but error remains. Encoder Strip is fine. Do you have any idea what this could be? Interconnect PCA is fine too. When powering up the service station makes a funny sound and seems not to complete the turning procedere. It does that on all 4 Service Stations. Ribbon Cable seems fine too, no visible damage. Thank you! Felix
Hello. A fairly common cause of the 21:10 error when the service station is NOT the cause, is the data cable. The data cable connects the small interconnect board and the electronics module. The cable comes in 2 sizes, one for the 24" print width plotter and one for the 42". See: www.lpscomputer.com/collections/designjet-500-800-parts-page/products/c7769-60298-designjet-500-800-interconnect-cable and www.lpscomputer.com/collections/designjet-500-800-parts-page/products/c7770-60267-designjet-500-800-interconnect-ribbon-cable TIP: Tape the end of the new cable to the old cable before you pull the old cable out. That pulls the new cable into position.

Hi Fares, 08:11 indicates your Z2100 doesn't recognize the formatter card. In rare cases, this is caused by a faulty main PCA. But in general, it means there is something wrong with your formatter card. You can find a replacement formatter here: www.lpscomputer.com/collections/designjet-z2100-parts/products/q6675-60086-designjet-z2100-formatter-board-sata-hdd
Since you've already replaced the service station, it is likely the interconnect cable that goes between the interconnect PCA and the electronics module is bad. 24" version: www.lpscomputer.com/collections/designjet-500-800-parts-page/products/c7769-60298-designjet-500-800-interconnect-cable 42" version: www.lpscomputer.com/collections/designjet-500-800-parts-page/products/c7770-60267-designjet-500-800-interconnect-ribbon-cable
Hello. The error 02:10 indicates a communication problem between the carriage and the electronics module. The board on the carriage most likely has failed and you will need to replace the carriage.
