Hi,
Glad to know it was useful, what are the odds that someone opened the same printer!!
anyways, i got the pinout from a google search, sorry didnt find the datasheet for these detectors, i found the datasheet for a similar honeywell sensor though. but that wasnt useful.
this is the site with the pinout for the q9864, thats the detector on the carriage head, so i expected the q9863 to be the same.
i verified the ground pin by tracing the -ve terminals of capacitors on the pcb and the detector with a multimeter. that was the easiest to find.
the pinout is toward the bottom.

did you get it working? let me know if you need the circuit diag with the 4093. pretty straightforward though.
