Sounds like the end switch might be disconnected or not triggered. There is a tiny switch on top of the right hand carriage holding the rails where the printhead is sliding accross. This should trigger with the printhead at the rightmost position, there is a green led on it too if that doesn’t light up check the cables.
It happens with me too.
I need to bend the metal trigger a little (just a little!!), in order to touch the printer head a little earlier, and activate the end switch at the right time…
Hi thanks for that done that but still vibrating a lot when it goes to the right printing ok after that but it’s just the noise
