After Moving or Transporting Your Product

After you move your product short distances (such as between floors in the same building), unpack it as described here. If you are transporting your printer long distances, contact Epson for support.
Note: After moving the printer, make sure you return the transportation cap to the printing position as described here. You cannot print when the cap is in the transportation position.
Note: Before storing your product for a long period, replace low, expended, or expired ink to help prevent the print head from drying out. Store your product in a cool, dry place.
