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.

Caution: Make sure you release the print head by pulling out the green tab.

Maintaining and Transporting the Printer 113

5.Turn off the printer and unplug the power cord.

6.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 request 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.

7.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, as described on the Start Here sheet.

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 96) and realign the print head (page 99) to ensure good print quality.

If you see the message PERFORM POWER CLEANING? on the LCD panel after setting up the printer, select Y to start the power cleaning process, as described on page 98.
