M3500B/M5500B Service Manual
Printer Sliding Door
Removal
Turn the printer upside down on a flat surface. Orient it so that the
a.
sliding door is nearest you. Note how the 2 springs are installed on
the sliding door and how the metal door limit is used to stop the travel
of the sliding door (the springs are identical).
Using a pair of needle-nose pliers, remove and save both springs.
b.
Lift the metal door travel limiter up and slide the door forward, away
c.
from the printer.
Slide the door out on its rails as far as it will go. Pull the retaining
d.
clips on one side of the door out away from the side of the printer
frame to unsnap the door from the printer.
Replacement
Starting at the end of the rails furthest out from the printer, hook the
a.
retaining clips on one side of the door over the rail and snap the clips
on the other side of the door into place. This is made easier by pulling
out on the retaining clips to spread them further apart, and by squeez-
ing the printer frame to deflect the rails toward each other.
Lift the metal door travel limiter up and slide the door in toward the
b.
printer all the way to the end of its rails.
Reattach the two springs, with their round ends hooked through the
c.
holes in the frame, and their angled ends hooked over the lugs on the
underside of the door. Note that the springs should be behind the
metal door limit.
