Maintenance and Transportation

Transporting the Printer

If you move your printer some distance, you need to prepare it for
transportation in its original box. Follow these steps:
1 Turn on the printer and 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
interface cable from the printer.
3 Remove any paper from the printer and remove the paper support.
4 Open the printer cover again. Secure the ink cartridge holder to the
printer with tape as shown below, then close the printer cover.
5 Push in the output tray extensions and close the tray.
6 Repack the printer and attachments in the original box using the
protective materials that came with it. See the unpacking sheet that
was packed with your printer.
Be sure to keep the printer level as you transport it. If you notice a decline
in print quality after transporting the printer, clean the print head (see
Cleaning the Print Head); if output is misaligned, align the print head (see
Aligning the Print Head).
