4. PRINTER TRANSPORTATION
This section describes the procedures for transporting the printer for returning after repair, etc.
1) Keep the print head and ink tank installed in the carriage.
[See Caution 1 below.]
2) Turn off the printer to securely lock the carriage in the home position. (When the printer is turned off, the carriage is automatically
locked in place.)
[See Caution 2 below.]
3) Attach the left / right side packing and accessory packing to protect the printer, and set in the packing box.
Note: If the packing used when the box was opened is not available, use packing of the same grade.
[See Caution 3 below.]
Caution:
(1) If the print head is removed from the printer and left alone by itself, ink is likely to dry. For this reason, keep the print head
installed in the printer even during transportation.
(2) Securely lock the carriage in the home position, to prevent the carriage from moving and applying stress to the carriage flexible
cable or causing ink leakage during transportation.
(3) Attach the accessory and side packing to the printer when transporting it, to prevent the print head face surface from contacting
the purge base, and from scratching the nozzles.
