I have an R2200 that I hope to use again. I bought it refurbished from Epson in 2006. I have made hundreds of prints with it, some excellent in the opinion of a photo instructor and a Lightroom instructor. It sat in storage (in a house) for 5 years. Now I want to use it again. While cleaning the inside I broke a $3 part. "encoder strip" It is no longer produced but I found a source. I have an 11 page PDF exploded view of the printer showing hundreds of parts. And a Youtube video that explains how to replace it, but not how to access it. But it appears I'll have to take half the printer apart! I'm wondering if I should send it to Epson or do it myself. Anyone have thoughts about attempting this repair??? Many thanks if you do!
