CQ869-67013 - Print Mechanism PCA Board PCB01 L26500

CQ869-67013 – Print mechanism board (Print Mechanism PCA PCB01) – HP L26500

The print mechanism board (Print Mechanism PCA Board PCB01 L26500, CQ869-67013) is fitted to HP Latex L26500 printers. It manages the electronics of the print mechanism and interfaces with the main board.

Its HP designation is "Print mechanism PCA board" ("PrintMech PCA"). It appears in the HP parts lists for the DesignJet L26100 (C9F27A, HP Latex 210) and L26500 (CQ869A, HP Latex 260), including the Japan version (CR030A), within the electronics module. According to the HP parts breakdown, it mainly drives the machine's motors and fans; HP's diagnostic aid identifies it with system error code 01.1:10.

Technical specifications

• OEM reference: CQ869-67013
• Manufacturer: HP
• Part type: Print mechanism board (PrintMech PCA)
• Manufacturer designation: "Print mechanism PCA board" ("PrintMech PCA")
• Location: Electronics module ("Electronics Module" block in the HP parts breakdown)
• Associated error code: "01.1:10" (PrintMech PCA not responding)
• Note: The equivalent references CQ869-80124 and CQ869-60124 given above do not appear in the HP parts lists for the L26100 / L26500 (only the CQ869-67013 is listed there); the CQ869-60124 corresponds to the manufacturing number (-60xxx) found on some boards, the CQ869-80124 could not be confirmed. They are kept for guidance: the HP order reference remains CQ869-67013.
• Shipping: Shipped ready to install

Compatibility & use

• HP Designjet L26100
• HP Designjet L26500
• HP Latex 2xx
• On error "01.1:10", HP recommends in order: a full restart of the machine, checking the cables between the PrintMech PCA and the Engine PCA "Sausalito" (CH955-67021), then replacing the PrintMech PCA and, if the error persists, the Sausalito.
• On errors "15.08:00" / "15.09:00" (drying fans) and "16.08:00" / "16.09:00" (curing fans), first check the fan cables to the PrintMech PCA: the board is only replaced as a last resort, if no fan turns.

Function

• Drives the machine's motors: scan motor (carriage), media advance motor, rewinder motor (HP parts breakdown)
• Drives the upper fans, drying ("dryer") fans and curing fans, as well as the fan and IR sensor
• Controls the ink valves and ink pressurisation pumps, as well as the "web-wipe"
• Communicates over I2C bus with the heaters control assembly "Heaters Control" (CH955-67052)
• Ensures the electronic control of a sub-system
• Passes the signals to the main board
• Acts as an interface between the firmware and the hardware

Signs of wear

• System error "01.1:10": "Problem with the Printmech PCA" — the board does not respond
• Errors "15.08:00" / "15.09:00": drying fans not connected or faulty (cables to the PrintMech, then the board)
• Errors "16.08:00" / "16.09:00": curing fans not connected or faulty (same diagnostic)
• Errors "14.07:00" (I2C link with the Heaters Control inoperative) and "14.08:00" (no AC voltage in the dryer): the PrintMech PCA is among the parts to replace after the Heaters Control
• Errors "44.4:03" / "45.4:03": front / rear spindle driver overheating — spindle cables and motor first, PrintMech PCA next
• Error "14.15:00": generic Heaters Control failure — HP replacement cascade: Heaters Control, Sausalito, PrintMech, Main PCA
• Sub-system not driven
• Electronic errors
• Loss of internal communication
• Erratic behaviour or machine stops

Replacing this part restores the machine to proper working order.
