Packing the printer for shipping
When service requests that you return the printer to a service center
for repair, pack the printer for shipping. You might also need to pack
the printer to send it to another location.
Pack the printer
1 Turn off power to the printer.
2 Remove the power cord from the printer and power receptacle.
Remove the interface cable and any other cables attached to the
printer.
– If you are shipping the printer to use at another location, pack
the power cord, interface cable, and any other cables in the
accessories box.
– If you are shipping the printer for service, do not ship cables
with the printer unless asked to do so.
3 Remove all cards from the card cartridge, and card output
stacker, and printer. Do not ship cards unless asked to do so.
4 Secure the print ribbon cartridge. Leave the print ribbon cartridge
in place or apply packing tape. See Figure 2-5 for the location of
the tape. Avoid applying tape to labels in the printer.
