The paper guide assembly, 3 small separate pieces of plastic, on the left hand side (when looking at the rear of the printer), just below the rubber rollers has come loose. I need to refit the bits, but can't work out how to remove the paper cartridge or get access to the behind the paper cartridge. Is there a drawing or assembly guide available to assist me in taking this printer apart?

 

There are not many local retailers who can repair it for me, and the only local one who can, will charge me pretty much what a new printer would cost! I've just recently bought £50.00 worth of ink for the printer so don't want to just scrap it and buy a new one for very obvious reasons. Can anyone help please?
