- Taking apart these Epson inkjet printers is a bit tricky, but they are built to max performance while minimizing wasted space on your desk or counter. First half of the video, I will tell you step by step instructions and after that I will just disassemble the rest of the printer without talking. Please like this video and subscribe to our channel.

What you are doing is a public service. THANK YOU!!!
Thanks. I appreciate your encouragement! Have a great weekend!
Was going to play Star Wars Battlefront, but watched your video instead.
Recently got one of these printers and will be salvaging it for parts, so your tutorial will come in handy.
Cheers brother
Thank you for showing how to take this apart.
Awesome video. Great quality!
Great video, loved it!
Oh, Thank you so much.
Great video. Very good information contained in what you did.
Thank you I really needed this!
You're welcome! I'm glad you found the video. Have a great weekend!
It's great help me thanks brother
I just watched that in a bit of fast forward and that was like the sexiest tear down ever. All I did was replace the print head to try to get it to work and I already lost a screw, and I still can't get any color to print. I'm not going to tear it down any more, I'll lose half the parts, LOL. Such a shame, this has been a great printer for about 2 years.
Thanks for your feedback! Have a great day!
Thanks for this. Replaced my touchscreen and everything seems to be working. Im left with one plastic piece still out though and i have no idea where it goes...
Watched this video hoping to see where this white plastic piece that i randomly found laying in my paper tray goes to. Watched through several times and couldn't see it. Any idea where to look to find out where the piece fell off from?
Can u make a vedio about which transistor r there in wf series Epson printer ,mine is wf7611 it is not getting on ,I want to replace the transister
Thank you for such detail video. Just wondering if you can give some suggestions for troubleshooting for no power issue? WF3640, after a power surge, the printer won't turn- no, screen, power button won't lit up..tried different outlet, power cord and replacing with an new power supply, none of all make difference. I was hoping there is a fuse on main board, however, not sure I saw one. Hope you can share some directions. Thank you so much GT
I'm dealing with the exact same situation. Did you ever figure it out?
Can you advise me where to look. I have been asked to see what I can do with a 3620 Printer. Her husband had a go at it first. Now on Power on it says 'Please close the scanner lid' or something similar. Her husband removed a small switch from somewhere, and I can't find where, but I suspect it has to do with this error message. Where would I find the scanner detect switch? As an extra, I found a screw floating around in the carriage well, and the two deep holes in the top front do not have screws in! Thanks for any advice. This is a good video, but I hoped that you photographed every step as you went so that you could put it back together again.
Are the encoder strips supposed to be totally flat, not bent or creased from mailing? I have a screeching sound on the left side of the carriage and am wondering if the encoder strip is part of the problem?
Under the print head assembly on the left hand side is there a little black clip? What is that for?
Interesting video! I was wondering if you could help me with a solution to my epson wf-7715wdf error code 034011? Most resarch is poniting firmware issues and I have tried to update it still remain the same. One certain when connected to my laptop it shows the same error with details pointing to waste tank and ink.
Hello friend, greetings from Ecuador, please I need your help. I have an Epson WF-3620 that is presenting the following error "Maintenance box not installed. install it correctly"
I already replaced the maintenance box but the problem persists, do you know what it could be?
Where is the paper feed sensor on this model?
I took my cartridges out and there was a small spring and small black piece of plastic? what was that?
how to clean inside scanner?
I have an error code 0x10 and have tried all other things advised to try. What can I try?
So if that ink catching pad the grey one somehow wrapped around the rollers u see the paper come out. I have to take it apart just to clean the rollers? I took most piece I got with a long tweezer but it's saying error and the rollers got tight. :( That isss alot to do.
Hi. No, you do not need to take a printer apart. Usually if you can get paper pieces out if the printer with the help of tools like tweezers, you can get it to work. Try shining some light into the paper path and make sure you got it all. You may also remove back duplexes and check it too. It just pulls out.
@@303electronics ok, I will try that.
I'm not sure but I think this can Disavoid the warranty. 😉
I wouldn't know the reason to try repairing a printer if it is still under warranty.
WF 2650 Stacker tray that extends out, broken. Must you disassemble the printer in order to replace the tray?
No necessarily. Apply some force by bending the tray a little and it should come out.
Do you need to take apart the whole top to get to the control panel/touch screen? I saw that you sell them and will purchase soon! Just curious
To change the control panel, you do not need to take apart the top. There is two screws that hold the CV control panel. It's an easy replacement

Great! Thank you for the help
Hi, you got any ideal where I can fine the print head cable for a WF7620
Hi. I don't know where that part can be ordered. I also do not have that cable. I'm sorry.
Hi, do you know what to do with the printhead, when putting the printer on it goes to left and the to right and stops, it’s not locking and there is a hard bang going to the left...
You may have a dirty or ripped timing strip. Most likely ripped. It is a thin film strip about quarter of an inch in width and is supposed to attach from one side to the other. You can fix it by attaching tape to the damaged end of the strip and attach it back to the hooks. You may need to remove side panels to get access.
Aaah okay, well cleaned the strip and it works, but not very well now it will not bump to the left and right, but when I want to print it falls out 🙈 it’s by the way a Epson wf-7620, why does it falls out when I run (any) print (program)? 😢
my dad and i cleaned the print head because we were getting an error but i think we may have put the printer head ribbon cable the wrong way..do you have a picture of that setup by any chance?
do the blue parts face top or bottom
@@hales912 Blue part top. White part bottom.
Do you think these instructions would work for a WF-3540 Epson printer? The foam liner on my waste ink pad has come loose.
Yes. Thats a very similar model.
What causes the paper to only come about 1 inch past the rollers? basically almost exactly where the print heads would contact the paper
Check the rear duplex unit. It is removed by pressing the tabs on the back together. On one side of the duplex unit you will see gears. One may have popped out. If so, push it in. When spinning one gear by hand, all 3 should also spin. Please let me know if that was the issue. Another thing can be is that there is something jammed or a piece of some object or paper in the area where the duplexes is. Since you have duplexes off, shine some light in the back of the printer and look for one of these: a piece of paper(can be tiny), a roller which is misplaced, or if there are rubber rollers, clean then with an rubbing alcohol or window cleaner solution. I hope this helps you.
@@303electronics I cleaned the clear tape in front of the belt and all seems to be fine now. I tested the gears and they are fine
Great. This will be helpful for someone looking for solution to similar problem. Thank you for sharing.
hahaha... Yes !!! Only like that are good those workforce printers... Dead and taking apart in a corner of a storehouse... Never again Epson !
can someone make a video on how to take apart the WF-7720? I need to take out the little white plastic wheels at the ejection area. They keep leaving pizza wheel marks and i want to get rid of them. I would gladly pay someone for their time if they can make the video or just tell me how to do it.
Have you ever taken apart a Epson 7720. ?
Haven't yet, but I think its similar to this model. I will as soon as I get one.
@@303electronics thank you.
I just take out the dc motor and a power supply
Can I send you my printer to fix?
Hi. I usually don't offer that service. Whats wrong with your printer?
It has the well know blurred text every few lines but only in black.
@@lajuanwright507 your printer just needs the printhead to be cleaned. Did you see my video where I show howbto do it? Shipping printer back and forth will just drain the cost. Check out this video:
m.ruclips.net/video/Qtnd8xO9g9Y/видео.html
Yes, I saw your video. That’s what prompted me to pose the first question about you fixing it for me. This is my third 3640 printer and they have all done the exact same thing. I just refuse to give up on it and throw it out. Thanks for your help.
By far the worst printer I have ever owned. Does a great job of copying to a computer however.
Inkjet printers suck. They are throwaway when it comes time for serious failure.
