Transportation
If you need to ship your printer or transport it a long distance, prepare it for transportation as
follows:
Caution:
When storing or transporting the printer, avoid tilting it, placing it vertically, or turning it upside
down; otherwise ink may leak.
When storing or transporting an ink bottle after removing its seal, do not tilt the bottle and do not
subject it to impacts or temperature changes. Otherwise, ink may leak even if the cap on the ink
bottle is tightened securely. Be sure to keep the ink bottle upright when tightening the cap, and
take measures to prevent ink from leaking when you transport the bottle.

position). If not, turn on the printer.
