3, with little flat mouth screwdriver slide down the gap to the printer front, left and right sides in printer and positive met within a total of four CARDS, in the same way to open them. In this way, the printer cover and base separate!
4, the paper card can feed at the mouth of the activity is held to live, and move to the left side (facing the printer) until the notch. At this point, the lift cover can be easily removed by it.
The second step: correct dismantling the print head
1, remove the print head: remove the printer cover, look at the right side of the print head (facing the printer), find a clip, with a handle gently hold print entered warehouse, another hand with flat with a screwdriver gently pry the clip, this time feel print entered warehouse to move a bit on the right side. Connect the print head, ink cartridges monitoring chip cable (the cable need hemostatic forceps type tool clamp) pull out from the socket, connect the print head cable slowly pulled out from the circuit board slot, then also can see the print head under the white cable to the left of another clip, also with a small screwdriver gently pry clamp, then can use the hand will print entered warehouse and warehouse apart, while the print head have also can take down from orbit.
