Transporting The Printer - Epson Stylus C80 Printer Basics Manual

Transporting the Printer

If you move your printer some distance, you need to prepare it for transportation in
its original box or one of a similar size. Follow these steps:
To avoid damage, always leave the ink cartridges installed when
transporting the printer.
Be sure to remove the tape used in step 5 after installing the printer
in its new location.
1. Turn on the printer and wait until the print head locks in the far right position.
Then press the P power button to turn the printer off.
2. Unplug the power cord from the electrical outlet and disconnect it from the
printer.
3. Disconnect the printer cable from the printer.
4. Remove any paper from the printer and remove the paper support.
5. Open the printer cover. Secure
the ink cartridge holder to the
printer with tape as shown,
then close the printer cover.
6. Push in the output tray
extensions and close the tray.
7. Repack the printer and
attachments in the original box
using the protective materials
that came with it. See the Start
Here sheet for details.
Be sure to keep the printer level as
you move it.
After transporting the printer, remove the tape securing the print head and test your
printer. If you notice a decline in print quality, clean the print head (see page 23); if
output is misaligned, align the print head (see page 34).
