142 | Maintaining and Transporting the Printer
Preparing the Printer for Shipment
1. Turn off the printer and unplug the power cord.
2. Remove the following parts:
• Power cord and interface cables
• All paper or other media
• Roll paper spindle
• Paper tray
• Any optional components.
3. Leave the ink cartridges installed.
4. If you need to ship the printer, you must repack it using the original box
and packing materials and secure it to a pallet. If you do not have these
items, contact Epson to purchase them. Otherwise, the printer may be
damaged beyond repair.
If you are transporting the printer in your own vehicle without the
original packaging, make sure you wrap and pack the printer securely.
Transport the printer in a horizontal position on a flat, stable surface.
5. Keep the printer level while moving it.
Setting Up the Printer After Transportation
Setting up the printer after transporting it is almost identical to setting it up
for the first time.
Keep in mind that the first time you start printing after moving the printer,
the print head nozzles may be clogged—especially if the printer hasn’t been
turned on for a long time. You may need to run a cleaning cycle (page 120)
and realign the print head (page 125) to ensure good print quality.
After setting up the printer, if you see a message on the LCD screen asking
you whether you would like to run an auto nozzle check, select
Y to start the
nozzle check procedure.
Caution: Do not turn off
the printer by unplugging
it or turning off a power
strip. You will not be able
to lock the print head, and
ink will leak out of the
reservoir, damaging the
printer.
