Encoder Strip for Forepson 3800-Series Printers

The YINGHUA Coding Encoder Strip P808 replaces part number 1592783-00 in Forepson 3800, 3850, 3880, 3885 and 3890 models. It restores accurate carriage positioning so the printhead fires at the correct location on every pass. Install it when the original strip is scratched, contaminated or missing.

Limits of the Optical Encoder System

The strip relies on a clean, undamaged optical scale read by the printer’s sensor. Dust, ink mist or physical scratches on the strip surface will cause positioning errors that the part cannot overcome. It does not fix faults in the sensor, carriage motor or main board.
