Packing and shipping 
the machine

B

When you transport the machine, use the 
packing materials that came with your 
machine. If you do not pack the machine 
properly, you could void your warranty.

CAUTION

It is important to allow the machine to ‘park’ 
the print head after a print job. Listen 
carefully to the machine before unplugging 
it to make sure that all mechanical noise 
has stopped. Not allowing the machine to 
finish this parking process may lead to print 
problems and possible damage to the print 
head.

a

Open the ink cartridge cover.

b

Pull the lock release levers down and 
take out all the ink cartridges. 
(See 

Replacing the ink 

cartridges

on page 74.)

c

Install the yellow protective part, lift each 
lock release lever and push it until it 
clicks, and then close the ink cartridge 
cover.

CAUTION

If you are not able to find the yellow 
protective part, DO NOT remove the ink 
cartridges before shipping. It is essential 
that the machine be shipped with either the 
yellow protective part or the ink cartridges 
in position. Shipping without them will 
cause damage to your machine and may 
void your warranty.

d

Unplug the machine from the AC power 
outlet.

e

Using both hands, use the plastic tabs 
on both sides of the machine to lift the 
scanner cover until it locks securely into 
the open position. Then unplug the 
interface cable from the machine, if it is 
connected.

f

Lift the scanner cover to release the lock 
(1). Gently push the scanner cover 
support down (2) and close the scanner 
cover (3).
