Transportation

If you need to ship your printer or transport it a long distance, prepare it for transportation as follows:

1.	Press the  power button to turn off the printer.

Note:
Always turn off the printer using the  power button, and wait until the  power light stops flashing before unplugging the printer or cutting off power to the electrical outlet.

2.	Unplug all the connected cables.

3.	Remove all the paper.

4.	Open the printer cover. Fasten the ink cartridge holder to the case using tape. Leave the ink cartridges installed to avoid damaging the printer.

5.	Close the printer cover.

6.	Close the front cover and paper support.

7.	Pack the printer in its original box or one of a similar size using protective material to keep it from moving inside the box.

8.	Keep the printer level during transportation to prevent damage.

9.	After unpacking the printer, remove the tape securing the ink cartridge holder.

If print quality has declined when you print again in a new location, clean and align the print head.
