OP OP Dio1080 In Runtime Messages 205 Location USA Aug 17, 2007 #3 I forgot to mention that, its not shielded.

Click to expand... it's not lead. your enclosure should be sufficient enuff to distance the little magnet away from the printer. glue another magnet backward (it's hard) on the previous one if you want to shield it. this cancels the magnet effects
