5-26Maintaining and Transporting the Printer

Setting Up the Printer After Transportation

Setting up the printer after transporting it is almost identical to setting it up for the first time. Whenever you set up the printer, see chapter 1.

Don’t forget to remove the carriage locking bracket (if reinstalled).

The first time you start printing after moving the printer, the print head nozzles may be clogged. You may need to run a cleaning cycle (see page 5-4)and realign the print head (see page 5-7)to ensure good print quality.

Caution

Do not roll the printer on angled or uneven surfaces.

Moving the Printer on the Stand

When you need to move the printer a short distance, such as within the same building or facility, you can roll the printer on its casters. Follow these steps:

1.Make sure the printer is turned off and the carriage is in the home position (on the far right). If not, turn the printer back on, wait until the carriage moves to the home position, then turn off the printer.

2.Disconnect the power cord and interface cables.

3.Make sure the printer covers are closed.

4.Fully insert the metal rods supporting the paper basket, then roll up the basket so it doesn’t drag on the ground.
