Moving the Machine
This section shows you how to manually move the machine from one floor to another floor. See the
section "Transporting the Machine" if you have to pack the machine and move it a longer distance.
• Remove all trays from the optional paper feed unit or LCT.
• Remove peripherals physically attached to the main machine: Paper feed unit, LCT and finisher.
• Attach the caster stands for the paper feed unit or LCT if these have been removed before moving
the machine.
Transporting the Machine
Main Frame
1. Do SP 4806-001 to move the scanner carriage from the home position. This prevents dust from
falling into the machine during transportation.
2. Remove the toner cartridges. This prevents toner flow into the toner supply tube, which is caused by
vibration during transport. This can also cause the tube to be clogged with toner.
3. Make sure there is no paper left in the paper trays. Then fix down the bottom plates with a sheet of
paper and tape.
4. Empty the toner collection bottle. Then attach securing tape to stop the toner bottle from coming
out.
5. Take out the scanner stay from inside the front door and install the scanner stay.
6. Do one of the following:
• Attach shipping tape to the covers and doors.
• Shrink-wrap the machine tightly.
• After you move the machine, make sure you do the "Auto Color Registration" as follows. This
optimizes color registration.
• 1. Do the "Forced Line Position Adj. Mode c" (SP2-111-3).
• 2. Then do the "Forced Line Position Adj. Mode a" (SP2-111-1).
To check if SP 2-111-1 was successful, watch the screen during the process. A message is
displayed at the end. Also, you can check the result with SP 2-194-10 to -12.
• Make sure that the side fences in the trays are correctly positioned to prevent color registration
errors.
