Remove the pressure release and tension release pin sets (one
set on the left and one on the right) from the OPC belt cartridge

grasping the tab on the front and pulling the paper straight out
of the printer (fig. 2.27).

Holding the cartridge by the green handle, firmly slide it the
rest of the way into the printer until it snaps into place. It is in
place when you can see the green arrows inside the metal
frame of the printer.

the cartridge in place.
