Transporting The Printer - Epson Stylus Photo 1400 User Manual

Transporting the Printer

If you need to ship your printer, you must prepare it for transportation by packing
the printer in its original box or one of a similar size.
Caution:
Leave the ink cartridges installed. Removing the cartridges can dry out the print head
and may prevent the printer from printing.
1. Turn off the printer.
2. Remove any paper from the sheet feeder and close the paper support.
3. Push in the output tray extensions and close the tray.
4. Unplug the power cord from the electrical outlet. Then disconnect the USB
cable from the printer.
5. Repack the printer in the original box using the protective materials that came
with it.
Caution:
During transport, do not tilt the printer, stand it up vertically, or turn it upside down, or
ink may leak from the cartridges.
After transporting the printer, plug it in and turn it on. If you notice a decline in
print quality, clean the print head (see page 48); if output is grainy or blurry, align
the print head (see page 57).
