Transporting the Printer
If you move your printer some distance, you need to prepare it for transportation in
its original box or a similar one. Follow these steps:
1. Turn on the printer.
2. Turn off the printer and unplug the power cord from the electrical outlet. Then
disconnect the printer cable from the printer.
3. Open the printer cover and tape the ink cartridge holder to the printer case using
packing tape. Then close the printer cover.
Caution: Be sure to remove the tape after installing the printer in its new
location.
4. Remove any paper from the printer, then remove the roll paper holder, if it is
installed.
5. Close the output tray and the paper support.
6. Repack the printer and its attachments in the original box using the protective
materials that came with them.
7. Keep the printer level as you transport it.
8. After transporting the printer, remove all the tape.
9. Test your printer. If you notice a decline in print quality, clean the print head
(see page 77); if output is misaligned, align the print head (see page 84).
