I came across this Epson part supplier on the Yahoo Epson Printer forum,

http://www.compassmicro.com/parts1.cfm

Find your printer and go to the page of online stock parts. There will be a link for an Exploded Diagram, e.g,

http://www.compassmicro.com/files/Artisan%2050%20exploded%20diag.pdf

As near as I can tell, there is a diagram for all of the Epson printers.

There are a number of places where you can buy actual service manuals 
for most printers. Look on ebay first - there is a guy somewhere in 
Eastern Europe whom I've dealt with a couple of times who sells them 
for $2.98. You pay him via paypal and he gives you a link to download 
the pdf. As far as I can tell, these things aren't copyrighted.
