    [Misc] How do you fix touch screen display panel?

    This may just as well be for any copier but it's a EP 2080. I can't get the operational panel or parts for it because it is obsolete.

    The touch screen has to be pressed a few times for it to change to a new window. Can it be taken apart and cleaned or is that just not done?

    Thanks for any input.

    The touchscreen itself is a sealed unit and you cannot take it apart. You can take the panel apart and reseat everything but most likely that will not help, once the touchscreen starts acting up the only solution is replacement.

      You could always try to slide an id or something similar to the perimeter of the screen in case dust or anything similar is caught between and/or dissasembly it and leave the touch glass for a day or two in a dry place.If none of these work replacement is needed.
      I don't like the new copier I just bought. It says "put face down" but every time I do it, it blinds my eyes.

            No need for toster ( hahaha omg ). Take the touch panel glass( digitizer). Place it on flat surface whit back side facing you. Put something squared and hevy in the middle. Use hairdryer and blast it whit the heat on all sides for 5 -10 minutes. If still not working then repeat the procedure 15 to 20 minutes. Glass needs to be hot. I fixed 8 out 10 digitizers whit this procedure . good luck
