The black rubber print roller is a wearable part and must be cleaned frequently and replaced immediately if worn. When the print roller is worn you may notice poor print quality, the roller may begin to have a flattened appearance in places, or you may notice other visible signs of damage. Using a worn print roller can damage the printhead.
1. Remove power and supplies from the printer. 2. Using a T10 torx screwdriver, loosen the screw that secures the coupling holding the roller in place. You may need to manually rotate the print roller to align the screw with the opening for access.
3. Locate the roller access hatch on the left-hand side of the printer. Rotate the hatch cover clockwise to release it. Remove the hatch cover.
4. Using a T10 torx screwdriver, remove the two screws.
5. Pull the print roller out.
6. Insert the new print roller into the printer. 7. Insert the shaft into the coupling so that the flat side on the end of the shaft aligns with the flat part of the coupling.
8. Tighten the screw on the coupling to secure the roller in place.
9. Reinstall the two screws on the yellow disk in the access hatch. Take care not to overtighten the screws.
10. Replace the cover on the hatch and turn counter-clockwise to lock it in place.
