Pull the plastic side cover off of the printer.
You may need to lift the printer and push the cover downwards as it is latched onto the bottom of the printer.
Plastic opening tools or a metal spudger may also be used.

Step 7

Remove the five 11.5 mm screws located at the bottom of the scanner.
Steps 3-6 were intended to create easier access to these screws. However, they will still be difficult to reach.
The top of the scanner will now easily pull off.

Step 8

Pry the old scanning glass up with a metal spudger.
There are adhesives under the scanning glass. Be careful not to break the glass while removing it.
