Hi, replacing the fuser on one of these printers can be a bit of a chore. If you can find a copy of the printer's service manual, it will give you exact instructions, but in general you will need to remove the left side cover (when looking at it from the front) and the operation panel, and possibly the right side cover. You may have to remove the rear cover as well in order to get the left cover off. Once you have all of those parts removed, you will see the fuser unit and the screws that hold it in place; simply remove those screws, disconnect the wires coming from the fuser, and remove the old one and replace it with the new one.
