Default HP officejet 710 - replace scanner cover

Hi!

I do not know if you could get a cover new, but the OfficeJet series 500
should have the same scanner cover.

Here are some pictures of mine:

Until recently I had a scrapped out OfficeJet 700-something complete with
the scanner module. I don't have it any longer. I parted it out and brought
several other machines into working order.

If your OfficeJet may have been wet, you may have to give it a LOT of time
to dry out. Until it does, the machine will behave very strangely. The one
you see in my pictures survived a nasty basement flood where it was entirely
under water. After letting it sit in the sun for several days and then
cleaning all the sensors, it works perfectly once again. They are pretty
hard to kill and make a pretty nice multifunction machine.

Mine was worth saving from the flood as the OfficeJets are the only machines
I know of that will let you save faxes to a PC. In this day of junk faxing
that capability is very nice to have.

William
