Service Parts Disassembly 8-3
General Notes on Disassembly
Before You Begin Any Disassembly Procedure:
1. Switch OFF the printer power and disconnect the power cord from the wall
outlet.
2. Remove the Imaging Units and protect them from exposure to light by covering
with a light proof bag or by placing in a light-tight container. Disconnect all
computer interface cables from the printer.
3. Wear an electrostatic discharge wrist strap to help prevent damage to the sensitive
electronics of the printer circuit boards.
Caution
Many parts are secured by plastic tabs. DO NOT over Flex or force these parts.
Do not over torque the screws threaded into plastic parts.
Always use the correct type and size screw. Using the wrong screw can damage
tapped holes. Do not use excessive force to either remove or install either a screw
or a printer part. When replacing a screw in plastic, rotate it CCW until you feel it
fall into the original threads then tighten the screw normally.
Note
Names of parts that appear in the disassembly procedures may not be exactly the
same as the names that appear in the Parts List. For example; a part called the
Registration Chute Assembly may appear on the Parts List as Assembly, Chute
REGI.
ng
Unplug the AC power cord from the wall outlet before removing any printer part.
