Installation: Epson D92

Releasing & Removing the Case

This requires a lot of patience to release different tabs and clips without breaking them and will probably require you to step back, take a break and then try again. Persevere, you will win 🙂

• Unscrew and remove the 2 screws shown.

• Release the tab on one side down and lever out using a flat head screwdriver (or similar)

• While you still hold the released side out, press the tab indicated by the error.
  Hint: This will make it easier to lift the side panel you’ve already released so it doesn’t clip back in

• Gently lever the back of the printer up a little and release the remaining side tab

• With the back and side tabs released you can now start to lever up the case

• Just behind the paper feed that are four tabs that have to be eased past to release the case top
  Tip: Don’t be too afraid of bending these but try not to break them

• Once you are past the rear tabs it’s relatively easy to pivot the case up and forwards to release the front tabs

The Waste tube Modification

• Now that you have the case off you can see the waste tube

• Using a pair of thin nosed pliers or even your fingers you can simple pull the waste tube free from its socket
• You then remove the little collar and slot it back into the socket where you won’t lose it.

• You now slide the tube over to the left side where it will be easier to redirect to an external tank.

• To avoid the waste tube crimping or folding so that ink won’t exit properly, I recommend cutting the tube length by about 2 inches…IMPORTANT: If in doubt, don’t cut the tube but do check for any tube folding or similar problems before you complete the installation.

• Push the barbed fitting from your OctoInkjet kit into the waste tube

• You need to remove one of the grill parts to allow the tube to exit..
  Tip: Remember to remove the lowest part, not one near the top.

• Pull the tube extension through the new hole
• Attach it to the barbed fitting on the waste ink tube

• As you start to put the case back into position, gently pull the extension tube so the barbed fitting is up against the hole.
  Tip: Do not make the hole big enough for the fitting to exit.
  This is a safety feature that stops you accidentally pulling the waste tube off the internal pump.

• You can now start to replace the case being careful to avoid the tabs on the rear and making sure the front tabs are also in place.
• Press down on the case to re-engage the tabs that hold it in place.
  Tip: Check for any loose wires, etc… 
• Replace the screws in the back of the case when everything is back in position

• This is the finished installation with the OctoInkjet Solo (box) kit installed
