Transporting the Printer
If you want to move your printer some distance, you need to
prepare it for transportation and repack it in the original box.
Follow these steps:
1. Turn on the printer and wait until the print heads lock in
the far right position. Then turn off the printer.
2. Unplug the power cord from the electrical outlet. Then
disconnect the interface cable from the printer.
3. Remove any paper from the sheet feeder and remove the
paper support.
4. Push in the output tray extensions and close the tray.
5. Repack the printer and attachments in the original box
using the protective materials that came with it. See the
Notice Sheet that was packed with the printer.
Be sure to keep the printer level as you transport it. If you
notice a decline in print quality after transporting the printer,
clean the print heads; if output is misaligned, align the print
heads. See the instructions in this chapter.
Caution:
To avoid damage,
always leave the ink
cartridges installed when
transporting the printer.
