Caution
■To prevent injuries, this printer should be lifted by at least two people.
■To lift the printer, face the front of the printer and grip the recessed areas at the bottom left and 
right with both hands. 
Never try to lift the printer by gripping any other areas. Lifting the printer by gripping other areas 
can cause the printer to fall, resulting in injuries.
■When lifting the printer, get a firm footing and bend your knees to avoid possible injuries to your 
back.
 
■When carrying the printer, keep it level to prevent trays or consumables from falling out. Do not 
tilt it more than 10 degrees in any direction.
■When moving the printer, keep the toner cartridges in the locked position and do not remove 
them from the printer. Toner may spill inside the printer and damage it.
■When the optional 2 Tray Module is installed, remove it before transporting the printer. If the tray 
module is not removed, it may fall, resulting in damage or injuries. To remove the 2 Tray Module, 
refer to the literature provided with the tray module.
