4-8 Maintaining and Transporting the Printer
Transporting the Printer
If you need to ship your printer, you must prepare it for transportation and repack it in
the original box. You must also remove the ink cartridges, to avoid the possibility of
ink leakage. However, if you are moving the printer only a short distance, for example,
from one table to another, you don’t need to remove the cartridges. Be sure to keep the
printer level when you move it.
