Transporting the Printer

If you need to transport your printer, carefully prepare and repack it as described below using the original box (or similar box that printer fits) and packing materials.

Open the printer cover and make sure that the print head is in the home (far right) position. If not, turn on the printer and wait until the print head returns to the home position. Then turn off the printer and close the printer cover.

Caution:
Leave the ink cartridges installed when you transport the printer. Removing the cartridges during transport can damage the printer.

Unplug the power cord from the electrical outlet, then disconnect the interface cable from the printer.

Remove the paper from the sheet feeder and remove the paper support.

Open the printer cover again. Secure the ink cartridge holder to the printer with tape as shown below, then close the printer cover.

Push in the output extension tray, and then raise the output tray.

Attach the protective materials to both sides of the printer.

Repack the printer and power cord in the original box.

Keep the printer level during transport.
