    • Flip printer on it's back. Using the plastic spudger, pry off front panel. There will be two main points to focus as shown.

    • Pry carefully to not break any plastic.

    my two main points were precisely under the rubber feet, they were surprisingly difficulty to dislodge.

    • Use the plastic spudger to remove the side panel. There are three main prying points as shown.

    • Pry carefully to not break any plastic.

    mine had a PH2 screw on the printer back thru the side panel into the aluminum serial plate/back, placed in the 2nd and third picture in the tab with a round screw hole and square locator hole. Critical clips were center back, center top and center bottom, and two points on the front.
