Preparing to Move the Printer

  1. Turn off the printer by pressing the button.

  2. Make sure the power light turns off, and then unplug the power cord.

    Important:

    Unplug the power cord when the power light is off. Otherwise, the print head does not return to the home position causing the ink to dry, and printing may become impossible.

  3. Disconnect all cables such as the power cord and USB cable.

  4. If the printer supports external storage devices, make sure they are not connected.

  5. Remove the output tray.

    Caution:

    Do not place the removed output tray on the printer as it is unstable. If the output tray falls while the printer is being moved, you may be injured.

  6. Remove all of the paper from the printer.

  7. Make sure there are no originals on the printer.

  8. Store the paper support.

The printer is ready to be moved.
