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:
1. Turn on the printer, wait until the print head locks in the far right
position, then turn off the printer.
2. Unplug the power cord from the electrical outlet. Then disconnect
the printer cable from the printer.
3. Remove any paper from the printer and remove the paper support.
4. Open the printer cover. Secure the ink cartridge holder to the printer
with tape as shown, then close the printer cover.
5. Push in the output tray extension and close the tray.
6. Repack the printer and its attachments in the original box using the
protective materials that came with them. See your Start Here sheet.
Keep the printer level as you transport 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 66); if output is misaligned, align the print head (see
page 72).
