store the printer
Your printer is built to withstand long or short periods of inactivity. Close the
paper tray door when the printer is not in use. Store the printer indoors out of
direct sunlight in a place without temperature extremes.
store the print cartridge
Always transport and store the active print cartridge inside the printer. The printer
stores the print cartridge in a protective cap.
Make sure the printer completes its power-down cycle before you unplug the
power cord. This allows the printer to store the print cartridge properly.
If the printer and print cartridge have been unused for one month or more, clean
the print cartridge before using it. For more information, see clean the print
cartridge on page 43.
