Yep, same thing. Shorter, longer. Same.
You probably can do it yourself, but it's a real job, no two ways about it. I have done it and while part of it was fun, other parts were not. A service technician is best, if possible. Unfortunately, the dreaded shredded belt issue is an eventuality with all of these printers.
ONLY get the replacement belt from LPS or a do-over happens right away.
It becomes more of a refurbishing project once you get into it. But afterwards you have a printer that should be good to go for several years more.
