7. Lift the printer using the hand grips where provided. (See the stickers
located near the rear hand grips for the correct holding position.)
8. Keep the printer level while moving it. See page 173 for information
about setting up the printer after transporting it.
To ship the printer a longer distance, you should repack it using the original
box and packing materials. If you don’t have the original packaging, you can
purchase replacement packaging from Epson. See page 12 for more
information.
Moving the Printer on the Stand
When you need to move the printer a short distance, such as within the same
building, you can roll the printer on its casters.
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 cable.
3. Remove any paper and close the roll paper cover. Make sure the front
cover is closed.
4. Store the paper basket as described on page81.
WARNING: The printer is
very heavy. Make sure you
have four people lift it.
Caution: Do not roll the
printer on angled or
uneven surfaces.
