• To prevent ink spillage, never lift and tip the machine from the level position.
• Make sure that the four screws that connect the scanner stand to the main unit stand are attached
and securely fastened.
• The scanner stand and scanner unit assembly is extremely top heavy and can tip over easily.
Never attempt to move the machine with the scanner stand detached from the main unit.
• Make sure that the four casters of the main unit stand and scanner stand are unlocked before you
try to move the machine.
• It is not necessary to remove the ink cartridges.
• Position your hands at base of the main unit and then push it slowly to the new location.
• Before shipping the main unit, pack and tape some shipping material against the carriage to
prevent the carriage from slipping out of position.
• Make sure that the main unit is packed level and strapped securely.
• A new machine with no ink in it can be tilted 70° from the horizontal to load it onto a truck or into
an elevator. However, a used machine with ink in it should never be tilted more than 45° from the
horizontal.
