uneven surfaces.

Moving the Printer on the Stand

When you need to move the printer a short distance, such as within the same
building, you can roll the printer on its casters.
1. Make sure the printer is turned off and the carriage is in the home
position (on the far right). If not, turn the printer back on, wait until the
carriage moves to the home position, then turn off the printer.
2. Disconnect the power cord and interface cable.
3. Remove all paper and the roll paper spindle and close the roll paper
cover. Make sure the front cover is closed.
4. Unlock the front casters.
5. Carefully roll the printer to its new location. Lock the casters after
moving.

Setting Up the Printer After Transportation

Setting up the printer after transporting it is almost identical to setting it up
for the first time.
Keep in mind that the first time you start printing after moving the printer,
the print head nozzles may be clogged—especially if the printer hasn't been
turned on for a long time. You may need to run a cleaning cycle (page 122)
and realign the print head (page 126) to ensure good print quality.
If you are not using the printer on a regular basis, turn it on at least once a
month and leave it on for several minutes.
If the nozzles are still clogged after three cleaning cycles, run a power
cleaning cycle as described on page 125.
If you are not planning to use the printer for a long period of time, cover it
with a non-static cloth to protect it from dust.
