Imagewriter II problem/question



I just got a cpomplete IIGS system off eBay that came with an Imagewriter II. Everything works great except the printer. I get a flashing red error light that the manual says is either a "cover off" error, or the print mechanism is jammed. cartridge slides across its track and centers itself on power up, and I can manually slide the cartridge fully from left to right, so I don't think jamming is the problem.

Is there a way to fool the cover sensor? Where is the cover sensor?

If this helps there was a small (tictac sized) magnet stuck to the cartridge motor. I thought maybe that was part of the cover sensor that came loose??

Thanks,
