Transporting the Printer for Short Distances

Make sure the printer is turned off and the operation panel is unlit, and then unplug the power plug from the outlet and remove the following items from the printer.

  • Power cord

  • Interface cables

  • Loaded paper

  • Installed optional paper cassette units

Important:

When moving the printer, always keep it horizontal and avoid subjecting it to shocks.

When lifting the printer to move it

Separate the printer and the optional paper cassette unit.

Important:

Unlock the fixture on the back of the printer to separate the printer and the optional paper cassette unit. If you lift the printer without unlocking the fixture, the fixture may be damaged and the optional paper cassette unit may fall.

When moving the printer on casters

Unlock the stopper for the casters. Avoid steps when moving the printer to prevent it from being subjected to shocks.
