  2. Connecting Cables and FFC Cables
  3. Installing the Main Board
  4. Securing the Main Board with Screws
  5. Attaching Side and Back Covers
  6. Connecting the Scanner Cable and Finishing the Process
  7. First, it's important to identify the small black lever located at the bottom far left side of the main board. This lever acts as the locking mechanism that holds the main board in place. Familiarize yourself with this lever, as you will need to interact with it during the installation process.
  8. Before installing the main board, make sure to reconnect all necessary cables, including the FFC (Flat Flexible Cable) cables. These connections are crucial for the printer's functionality and must be securely in place.
  9. To install the main board, pull back the black lever mentioned earlier. With the lever pulled back, carefully slide the main board into its designated position. Once the main board is in place, release the lever to secure it. Make sure to plug in any remaining FFC cables on the left side of the board.
  10. With the main board in position and cables connected, it's time to secure it with screws. There is one screw on the right side of the main board and another on the far left. To access the screw on the far left, lift the cover on the back of the printer and use a drill to tighten the screw.
  11. Once the main board is secured, reattach the side cover by lining up the tabs and pressing it into place. After the side cover is in position, it's time to attach the long back piece that covers the main board, wires, and FFC cables. This piece should be put on last, after all other components are in place. There are two holes in the back piece, which are designed to snap onto two notches on the printer for easy installation.
  12. Before attaching the long back piece, connect the scanner FFC cable. Once the cable is connected, snap the back piece onto the notches and slide it onto the hinges. With everything in place, your printer is now ready for use.
