So I have a troublesome epson 9890 with the cool black plastic cover. My light cyan has been giving me trouble as of late and I cannot notice the banding until I can see the image from below. So I thought I would share my Idea to remedy this for $10.
I purchased a 4 ft led light stip and attached to the internal section of the printer.
Check it out

As long as none of Epson's sensors are affected by your LEDs then you've got a cool looking machine. Preview color will probably be off.

not to worried about color just the banding issues
no problems yet with anything else
thanks

Are you gonna install hydraulics next?
(pretty creative btw)
-
I might install some chrome wheels and a nice sound system the hydraulics might not be in the budget

I put a coin slot on mine! Twenty-five cents buys one minute of time. You should see the customers frantically pumping quarters near the end of their print! - Jim

You have just turned a Corolla into a Escalade!
Nice work
-
Corolla? I consider Epson's comparable to a Jaguar you need a mechanic on speeddial with a jag.

Nice job!
How did you resolve the wiring of the LED strip?

The sensor inside the dark cover are infra-red sensitive and the dark cover is to prevent other light sources from interfering with the sensor. I use an LED flashlight to see the paper when the job is running.
