Going back to that clear reader belt we mentioned earlier, we will have to remove it. Using a number two Phillips head screwdriver, you’re going to have to remove three screws. From the side panel. Pull a little bit, and you should be able to remove the timing belt. You can very carefully pull it out of where it goes through the printhead carriage.
Now that that’s out of the way, you should be able to remove the brown drive belt. On the left, you’ll have to work with it a bit to slide it through the opening, making it come out. Then we’ll need to remove the waste tank unit.
There are going to be two screws you need to locate. The first one will be between the right edge of the scanner and the white piece of the waste tank unit immediately to the left. For the second screw, you’ll need to slide this to the right, where you’ll see it hidden. After removing both screws, pull off the black rubbery tube and very carefully remove the waste tank unit from the scanner.
Regards,
Jimmy
