Transporting the Printer

If you need to transport your printer, carefully prepare and repack
it using the original box (or a similar box that the printer fits
snugly into) and packing materials. Follow the steps below.
1. Open the printer cover and make sure that the print head is
in the home (far right) position. If it is not, turn on the printer
and wait until the print head returns to the home position.
Then, turn off the printer and close the printer cover.
