Where to get Flexible Flat Cable for scanner

Apr 03, 2009 4 Replies

My Canon 8400F scanner has a damaged flat flexible cable marked "Sumitomo-g awm 2896 80c vw-1 -F-". It has 6 pins, and is 450mm long.



I've searched Google for an hour and I'm no closer to finding an Australian (or even an overseas) supplier.



Any suggestions for suppliers I could try?



Thanks

IIRC they supply Lexmark scanner parts, but it might be worth asking if they support Canon scanners as well. Maybe there is a Canon MFC that uses the same flex cable.

Thanks Colin.

Those cables are all too short, but what a great catalogue! It's good to know there are shops like that around.

BTW - I gave up on the cable and bought a second hand scanner. It was cheaper than buying a new cable.
