Caution: Do not remove
the ink cartridges or leave
the print head uncapped
when storing the printer;
otherwise the print head
may dry out and be
unable to print properly.
Never turn off the printer
by disconnecting the
power cord or turning off
power to the electrical
outlet.
Do not tilt the printer,
stand it on end, or turn it
upside down to store it,
or ink will leak and you
may damage the printer.
Cleaning, Storing, and Transporting the Printer
Storing the Printer
If you will store the printer and not use it for a long time, follow these steps
to prepare it for storage:
1. Make sure the printer has stopped printing or performing any
maintenance procedures.
2. Open the right maintenance cover and make sure the print head is on
the right side (in the capped position).
If it is not capped, turn on the printer, wait a moment, then turn it off
and check again. Never move the print head by hand.
3. Remove any media loaded in the printer (see page 66).
4. Dispose of any waste ink in the waste ink tank (see page 78).
5. Press the P Power button to turn off the printer.
6. Disconnect the power cord and any interface cables.
7. Store the printer in a location with a flat level surface.
To maintain print quality during storage, clean the print head once a week
(see page 74).
Moving or Transporting the Printer
If you are moving the printer a short distance (for example, in the same
building), you can roll it on its stand as described on page 92.
To ship the printer a longer distance, you should carefully follow the
instructions on page 93 to prepare the printer for shipment.
