Preparing to Transfer the Printer
Preparing to Transfer the Printer
To protect the internal parts in transit, always follow these steps before transferring the printer to a new location.
Refer to the Setup Guide for details on packing the printer and installing it after transfer.
Important
• Be sure to contact your Canon dealer before transferring the printer to a new location. Ink may leak and damage
the printer if you do not prepare the printer correctly and it is tipped or stood on end in transit.
Note
• Depending on the state of the printer, part replacement may be necessary when preparing to transfer the printer
(that is, when you execute the printer menu item to prepare for transfer).
• Ink must be drawn into the Maintenance Cartridge before Level 2 or Level 3 printer transfer, as described in the
following table. Prepare the Maintenance Cartridge in advance.
• Always follow the instructions of the service representative when transferring the printer under Level 3 conditions.
