2. Long distance Transportation, Air Shipments, Long Term storage or situations where the printer may need to be Tilted
greater then 15 degrees during transportation.
Long term storage or Long Distance transportation requires the flushing of the printers ink system to prevent any possibility of ink spillage
during transportation, or in the case of long term storage to prevent ink from drying in the print head and ink system causing the system
to become clogged. This procedure will require you to contact Epson Support to request a Printer Transportation Kit so you will be able to
flush the Ink System for shipping. The Printer Transportation Kit is provided on a loan basis and is shipped at no charge when shipped by
UPS ground. Additional shipping charges will apply if an alternate shipping method is requested. The Printer Transportation Kit must be
returned to Epson promptly after use.
Prior to calling Epson for the Printer Transportation Kit the following prerequisites are required:
2.1 Have the Original Shipping Container available to package the printer and stand. Epson has shipping containers available for
purchase, alternatives would be to ship the printer via padded van or have a shipping container custom built locally.
