Transporting the Printer
Whenever you transport the printer, use the packing materials that came with the printer. If you do not 
pack the printer properly, you may void your warranty.
■To prevent injuries, this printer should be lifted by 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 the optional 2 lower trays are installed, remove them before transporting the printer. If the 
lower trays are not removed, they may fall, resulting in damage or injuries. Remove the 2 lower 
trays. Please refer to the literature we provided with them or see Uninstalling the Lower Tray Unit 
on page A-12.
Before transporting the printer, follow the procedure below:
1Press the power switch to the O position to turn the power 
off.
