Removing the Packaging

Inspect the shipping container(s) for damage; if damage is evident notify the shipping company to report the nature and extent of the damage.

The printer is carefully packaged to avoid any damage during transit. In order to operate the printer you will need to remove the packaging materials (i.e., tape and foam) that were placed in the printer for shipment. Complete the following steps prior to connecting power or attempting to load media.

¾ Ensure that the arrow on the box is pointing up, and then open the box.

¾ Remove the packing foam, cardboard divider, and power supply box.

¾ Lift the printer from the box and remove the packing foam.

¾ Remove the printer from the plastic bag.

;Note: It is a good idea to save all packaging materials in the event that shipping the printer is ever required.
