If the scanner glass cracks or breaks, it will need to be replaced in it's entirety. The glass is visible when you open the top of the printer so you will be able to tell if it needs replacement without taking the printer apart.

Hi there,

I see these instructions was published some time ago and I hope someone still knows something about this printer. I have a question about step 2 and 3. It says you are to pry trim pieces and remove side panels. What is the difference between these two? When I lift the scanner module (or whatever it's called) I see only one type of panels. And wouldn't step 2 be easier if the scanner module is lifted first as in step 3? I don't understand why it's done as shown, but maybe there is a certain reason.

The front and the side panels have hooks that are attached to the underside of the module, so there seem to be no way to pull the panels outwards. Looks more like they should be pulled downwards, but seeing how the plastic frame around the scanner glass looks in the picture at step 6 I assume that's not possible. Could someone please explain step 2 and 3 for me?
