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

Push in the output tray extensions and close the tray.

5

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

).

Caution:
To avoid damage,
always leave the ink
cartridges installed
when transporting
the printer.
