Transporting the Printer

Take precautions to prevent damage to the printer during transport. If a move requires trucking, use the original packaging materials.

Short Distance Transport

1.Turn off the printer and unplug the power cord from the wall outlet.

2.Remove the paper.

3.Remove all external communication and interconnection cables (AC line cord, coax cable, any optional attachment cards, etc.) from the printer.

4.Before you remove the developer unit, place several sheets of paper in front of the printer and on a work surface that you will set the developer on. Do this in case any toner spills.

5.Remove the developer unit. (It is a good idea to have a toner vacuum handy when performing this step.)

6.Place the developer unit in a sealable plastic bag.

7.Temporarily remove the OPC drum in order to remove the waste toner container.

NOTE: The waste toner container is recyclable. A recycling shipping label is provided, with instructions attached, in the toner box.

8.Place the green cap on the filler hole of the waste toner container and remove it from the printer and package it for recycling.

9.Install the OPC Drum in the printer.

CAUTION

Do not touch exposed areas of or bend the diskette. Keep the diskette away from magnetic fields. Do not store in especially cold (50°F) or hot (120°F) areas.

10.Remove the diskette from the disk drive and place it in a protective cover.

11.Always carry the printer and developer unit upright.
