    Solution

      When relocating the printer or storing the printer for a long period of time, pack the printer using the original packing materials.
      If you do not have the original packing materials, pack the printer carefully using protective material and place it inside a sturdy box.
      CAUTION
      Do not transport or store the printer with the front of printer (the Paper Output Slot Cover side) down as illustrated below. A failure can result.
      IMPORTANT
      Pack the printer with the Print Head and ink tanks left installed in the printer.

      1. Turn the printer off.

      2. Confirm that the Power lamp is off and unplug the printer.
      IMPORTANT
      Do not unplug the printer while the Power lamp is lit or flashing green, as it may cause malfunction or damage to the printer, making the printer unable to print.

      3. Retract the Paper Support, and then close the Sheet Feeder Cover and Paper Output Slot Cover.

      4. Disconnect the printer cable from the computer and from the printer, and then disconnect the universal AC adapter from the printer.
      When the battery is not used for a long period of time (6 months or longer), remove the battery from the printer. For details on how to remove the battery, refer to the battery's instruction manual.

      5. Use adhesive tape to secure all the covers on the printer to keep them from opening during transportation. Then pack the printer in the plastic bag.

      6. Attach the protective material to both sides of the printer when packing the printer.
      CAUTION
      When transporting the printer, do not grab it as illustrated below.
      The rear tray cover comes off and you may drop the printer.
