ipf605 timing strip help

[yonubear]

hi,

I am hoping that you all can help me out I just picked up a secondhand imagePROGRAF ipf605 and the dang carriage timing strip came off in transport would anyone be able to help me with getting it back on I can't seem to find any photos or anything online of how it should be installed

Usually those are in place with some hooks you will find parallel to the guide rails, with a spring on one side to keep it under tension.

thats what i thought but if i use the 2 hooks that I assume are where it was then it is super slacked and I can't seem to get it to stay behind the carriage sensor

how it should be installed

This a general description on how and where it fits, this machine is Canon but all printers are much the same, it’s important to get a good spring tension..
