I wanted to hack a canon printer to print on thick (30 to 40mm) materials. I wanted to do away with the ASF (automatic sheet feeder) and Paper Entry (PE) IR sensors and related mechanicals. Hence removed all those. But unfortunate I lost the timing I noted before ripping the printer. Hence googled for "Canon Paper Entry Sensor timing" and came across this instructible. Great one. Here are my comments:1. Unable to search this from instructables.com. Key words "Canon printer" "printing on floor" "printer on wheels" did not show up this ible. Had to search google again to get back this link.2. I think it is possible to move the "carriage slider" to print on the floor doing away with the difficult wiring/soldering part.

I think it is possible to move the "carriage slider" to print on the floor doing away with the difficult wiring/soldering part. You could do away with the ASF, the head cleaning unit etc. In that case you need to emulate the ASF and PE sensors.Good Job. Thanks.
