  • The main stepper motor, the part most likely to fail, is easy to remove.

  • The ink cartridges are easily replaceable.

  • Many parts inside the printer have ink on them, making repairs messy.

  • The other stepper motor is very hard to access and requires disassembling most of the printer.

  • The midframe, which contains the gearbox and secondary stepper motor, is attached to the case with blobs of melted plastic that must be cut off to remove.

  • The case is very hard and tedious to open without breaking tabs.
