When transporting the printer, do not lift it by the USB cable
holder as the holder may detach and cause the printer to fall.
Hold the bottom left and right sides of the printer firmly to
lift it.
You need to move the print head by hand to remove the ribbon
cartridge. If you have just used the printer, the print head
may be hot; let it cool for a few minutes before touching it.
