Product: HP DesignJet T770 44-in Printer with Hard Disk
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)
Hi,
I have a Designjet T1100 and suspect either the trailing cable is failing or the carriage.
Before buying anything, could any one tell me what is the best way to test a trailing cable?
I have measured continuity but except 1 or 2 conductors with readings of 2 ohms, all other measure less than 1 ohm.
The 2 conductors that measure 2 ohms are not on the cable border and don´t look damaged. Don't trust much this way to test a trailing cable. Any one can suggest a better way?
Regards
