Disassembly and Assembly

This section describes procedures for disassembling the printer's main components. Unless
otherwise specified, you can reassemble disassembled units or components by reversing
disassembly procedures. Therefore, no assembly procedures are included. Precautions for any
disassembly or assembly procedure are described under Disassembly/Assembly Points. Adjustments
required after assembling the unit are described under Required Adjustments.

Precautions for Disassembling the Printer

Follow the precautions below when disassembling the printer.
Disconnect the power cable before disassembling or assembling the printer.
Wear protective goggles to protect your eyes from ink. If ink gets in your eye, flush it
with fresh water and see a doctor immediately. If ink comes into contact with your skin,
wash it off with soap and water. If irritation occurs, contact a physician.
A lithium battery is installed on the C172 MAIN board of this printer. Be sure to observe
the following instructions when servicing the battery:
1. Keep the battery away from any metal or other batteries so that electrodes of opposite
polarities do not come in contact with each other.
2. Do not heat the battery or place it near fire.
3. Do not solder any part of the battery. (Doing so may result in leakage of electrolyte
from the battery, burning, or explosion. The leakage may affect other devices close
to the battery.)
4. Do not charge the battery. (An explosive gas may be generated inside the battery,
and cause burning or explosion.)
5. Do not dismantle the battery. (The gas inside the battery may hurt your throat.
Leakage, burning, or explosion may also result.)
6. Do not install the battery in the wrong direction. (This may cause burning or
explosion.)
Never touch the primary parts of the power supply unit (including the heat sink) while
plugging it in.
There is danger of explosion if the battery is replaced incorrectly. Replace it only with the
same or equivalent type, recommended by the manufacturer. Dispose of used batteries
according to government's laws and regulations.
Only remove the ink supply tube when necessary. If you need to disconnect it, be sure to
raise the end of the tube to prevent the ink from leaking out.
Risque d'explosion si la pile est remplacée incorrectement. Ne remplacer que par une pile
du même type ou d'un type équivalent recommandé par le fabricant. Elminer les piles
déchargées selon les lois et les règles de sécurité en vigueur.
