Epson R230 printer repair and printer Close To Open

Epson R230 printer cover is not as easy as opening other types of printers such as Epson C79, C90 C58, C45, T11, T20 and the Epson Stylus C45. On this occasion, if we want to fix the printer a lot of steps should we consider when disassembling the printer, because so many key baud and installed by the manufacturer, perhaps because of the size of the printer that is larger than previous versions and to strengthen the body of the printer own. Here are the steps to open the Epson R230 printer:
First prepared with tools such as:
1. Plus size screwdriver (+)
2. Small-sized screwdriver min (-)
3. Baud storage (so that not all baud when unpacking splattered everywhere)
After setting up tools on top of us straight to the point of dismantling the Epson R230:

1. Open the back of the printer baud 3 baud here there has to be opened, note the picture below



2. Open the printer cover left and right side by prying the retaining cap bottom first, and proceed to the back side, and so on the inside. note the picture below:









3. in the second part is not done in a hurry, do it with a heart-to-day and look carefully the parts of a binding cap printer, this process applies exactly the same

4. as opening the lid next to it.



5. At this stage we can do many things, such as:
  •  clean the inside of the printer
  • replace rubber puller roll paper
  •  etc.
