APPENDIX C
Appendix C – Preparing Printer for Transport
Please use this procedure if you ever need to transport the printer to a new location or ship the printer.
Please refer to the appropriate sections in the manual for details on installing/removing items from the
printer.
Local relocation
Transporting the printer from one room to another in the same building is considered a local relocation.
Local relocation does not normally require that the printer be repackaged before transportation.
To move your printer locally:
1. Switch the printer off using the ON/OFF button and wait until all lights turn off.
2. Turn off the Main Power Switch. Then disconnect the power cable from the printer and wall
outlet.
IMPORTANT! Do NOT switch off the power at the power outlet or remove the power cable until
all lights are off. Failure to do so may damage your printer.
3. Disconnect the USB or Ethernet cable from your printer.
4. Two people are required to lift the printer; keeping it as level as possible during this process.
IMPORTANT! The printer should remain level at all times during transportation and storage.
Failure to do so may cause the printer to leak ink.
5. Take care to avoid bumping the printer during the move.
6. When re-installing it in the new location; select the location as set out in the
Location" section
