How do I physically clean or replace the ink absorption pads on an Epson L210?

Physically cleaning or replacing the ink absorption pads on an Epson L210 is a more involved process. It generally requires disassembling parts of the printer to access the pads, which are usually located at the bottom. The pads can sometimes be cleaned with a damp cloth and then dried thoroughly, but replacement with new pads is the more effective long-term solution. This is often best left to experienced technicians.
