Fastener Types
The following table lists the types of screws used to assemble the printer. The procedures provide
dimensions for screws being removed.
CAUTION: Use care when installing self-tapping screws in plastic. To properly start the screw in
plastic, turn the screw counter-clockwise until you feel the screw engage the threads, then tighten
as usual. Improperly aligning or over tightening the screw can result in damage to previously
tapped threads. Always use the correct type and size screw. Using the wrong screw can damage
tapped holes. Do not use excessive force to remove or install either a screw or a printer part.
