Transporting and Storing 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. Remove all of the paper from the printer.

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

6. Open the scanner unit with the document cover closed.

   
   Caution:

   Be careful not to trap your hand or fingers when opening or closing the scanner unit. Otherwise you may be injured.

7. Make sure you install the ink tank cap securely onto the ink tank.

   
   Note:

   If the print head does not return to the home position after you turn off the printer, push the print head to the home position by hand.

8. Secure the ink tank with tape.

   

9. Close the scanner unit. Prepare to pack the printer as shown below.

   The scanner unit is designed to close slowly and resist a little as a precaution against catching fingers. Continue to close even if you feel some resistance.

   

10. Place the printer in the plastic bag and fold it closed.

11. Pack the printer in its box using the protective materials.

    Important:

    • When storing or transporting the printer, place the printer in the plastic bag and fold it closed. Avoid tilting the printer, placing it vertically, or turning it upside down; otherwise ink may leak.

      

    • When storing or transporting an ink bottle, do not tilt the bottle and do not subject it to impacts or temperature changes. Otherwise, ink may leak even if the cap on the ink bottle is tightened securely. Be sure to keep the ink bottle upright when tightening the cap, and take precautions to prevent ink from leaking when transporting the bottle, for example, putting the bottle in a bag.

    • Do not put opened ink bottles in the box with printer.
