HP97-HP41 printers frame interchangeable?

[Paul Berger (Canada)]

The platen is the part behind the paper that the print head presses the paper against, item 14 in figure 6-2 on page 6-5 of the 97 service guide. Looking at that picture it seems to me that what I had to shave off the frame was a fork like the one the rubber isolation mounts fit into that is higher up on the left side of the printer frame, but I am sure you will see what it is when you try to put the printer in.
