Missing a part

Took me awhile to figure this out too. Very simple: the upper handle of the cart is 'locked' into place with the lower cart just above the upper bag strap. It's the same plastic piece that adjusts the angle/position of the handle. Slide this plastic piece back up the shaft (toward the ball holders), and the upper handle will release & fold down. The 2 side wheels also fold in at the same time.

Its been a wile but if I remember right it goes from the solenoid under the cart (pass side) to the key switch (the other wire is probably volt meter) then micro switch,green wires from micro switch to controllern. Inspect all spade connections

I'm sure you figured this out by now, but for others stuck with the same question, here's how you fold it: the upper handle of the cart is 'locked' into place with the lower cart just above the upper bag strap. It's the same plastic piece that adjusts the angle/position of the handle. Slide this plastic piece back up the shaft (toward the ball holders), and the upper handle will release & fold down. The 2 side wheels also fold in at the same time.

Is it the right Cartridge you are trying to install please check and then check if the sensors are working.

You can try a reset on the printer using the # and the number 6,holding them down while plugging in the power cord at the back of the printer.if the problem again comes up try thesame with # and the number 9 buttons
see if it works,else get your printer serviced

Hello there,

In my experience I've never come across an error #12 on a X4270. I've seen an error 1200 & error 1203 a couple of times. Did you get this error after installing a new cartridge? then there are chances that the new cartridge that you installed is defective. The best way to figure if out is to take both the cartridge out and power recycle the printer with the cartridge out. Check out if the operator panel says "cartridge missing" when it is powered back on. If it doesn't say "cartridge missing" then the printer hardware is defective. You would need to get it serviced. If the printer comes up with "cartridge missing" message, then either one of the two carts that you have is defective. I would suggest you to insert one cart first and close the cover and check if it says "cartridge missing" If it does come up with that message then insert the other cart too.. If you get Error 1203 on after inserting a cart, then that cart is defective and needs to be replaced.

Merry Christmas!

The photoev cart is the photo developer cartridge.
