Maintaining and Transporting the Printer | 6-17
6. Have four people lift the printer unit off of the leg assembly, using the
hand grips located at the four corners of the printer. Lift the back of the
printer first, tilt it slightly to the front, then slide it back to remove it.
7. Keep the printer level while you move it.
Setting Up the Printer After Transporting It
Setting up the printer after transporting it is almost identical to setting it up
for the first time. Whenever you set up the printer, see the Unpacking and
Assembly Guide, and note the following points:
•
Don’t forget to remove any protective material (such as tape from the
ink cartridge clamps).
•
The first time you start printing after moving the printer, the print head
nozzles may be clogged. You may need to run a cleaning cycle (see
page 6-1) and realign the print head (see page 6-4) to ensure good print
quality.
Moving the Printer on the Stand
When you need to move the printer a short distance, such as within the same
building or facility, you can roll the printer on its casters. Follow these steps:
1. Make sure that the power cord, interface cable, roll paper spindles and
sheet media are removed, and the roll paper cover and lower cover are
closed.
Warning
The printer unit weighs
approximately 291 lb
(132 kg). Always have four
people lift it, using the hand
grip areas as shown.
Caution
Do not roll the printer
on angled or uneven
surfaces.
