Key to Enjoying Consistent Printing QualityThe key to printing with the optimal printing quality is to prevent the print head from drying or clogging.Always observe the following rules for optimal printing quality. Never unplug the power cord until the power is turned off!If you press the ON button to turn off the power, the machine caps the print head (nozzles) automatically to prevent from drying. If you unplug the power cord from the wall outlet while the ON lamp is lit or flashing, the print head will not be capped properly and this will cause drying or clogging. When unplugging the power cord , make sure that the ON lamp is not lit. Print periodically! Just as the tip of a felt pen becomes dry and unusable if it has not been used for a long time, even if it is capped, the print head too, may become dried or clogged if the machine has not been used for a long time. We recommend you to use the machine at least once a month. Note • Depending on the type of paper, ink may blur if you trace the printed area with a highlight pen or paint-stick, or bleed if water or sweat comes in contact with the printed area. 261
Precautions for Safe Transport of the MachineWhen relocating the machine, make sure of the following. Important • Pack the machine in a sturdy box so that it is placed with its bottom facing down, using sufficientprotective material to ensure safe transport. • With the FINE cartridge left installed in the machine, press the ON button to turn off the power. This allows the machine to automatically cap the print head, thus preventing it from drying. • After packing, do not tilt the box containing the machine or turn it on its side or upside down. Doing so may cause the ink to leak during transport and cause damage to the machine. • When a shipping agent is handling transport of the machine, have its box marked "THIS SIDE UP" to keep the machine with its bottom facing down. Mark also with "FRAGILE" or "HANDLE WITH CARE". 1. Turn the machine off. 2. Confirm that the ON lamp is off and unplugging the power cord . Important • Do not unplug the machine while the ON lamp is lit or flashing, as it may cause malfunction or damage to the machine, making the machine unable to print. 3. Retract the paper output tray and the output tray extension, then close the paper support. 4. Unplug the printer cable from the computer and from the machine, then unplug the power cord from the machine. 5. Use adhesive tape to secure all the covers on the machine to keep them from opening during transportation. Then pack the machine in the plastic bag. 6. Attach the protective material to the machine when packing the machine in the box. 262
