side cover.
2 Remove the right side cover and control panel of the printer.
3 Remove any media that may be exiting over the drive roll.

off of this location. There are two screws along the bottom and two
screws at the main plate. Dislodge the drive station gas spring. Grip a
pair of adjustable pliers onto the top of the gas spring. Push down and
away from the main plate to separate it from the ball joint on the main
plate.

wrench.

and bracket. The cups of the washers must face away from the bearings
on each roller end. Secure the roller using the two Phillips screws.
10 Slide the roller assembly back over the middle shaft. The ball end of the
set screws must face toward the front of the printer.
