Remote relocation
When transporting your Lomond printer to a remote location, your printer will need to be re-
packaged.
To minimise the chance of ink leakage due to incorrect handling, your printer must be placed
in ‘transport mode’ before repackaging. This requires you to switch off the printer as set out
below:
1.
To place your printer in ‘transport mode’, see page 102.
2.
To repackage your printer:
1.
Make sure the printer is in ‘transport mode’ and powered off before disconnecting the
power cable from the wall socket.
DO NOT switch off the power at the power outlet or remove the power cable before the power
lamp has ceased blinking. Failure to do so may damage your printer.
2.
Disconnect the USB or Ethernet cable from your printer.
3.
Prepare the original packing material (in which the printer was packaged when new).
4.
Remove the ink tanks from the printer, watching out for spills or stains.
5.
Wrap each ink tank in clean, lint-free absorbent material and place them in a sealed
plastic bag as a precaution against any spillages during transport.
DO NOT remove the printhead before re-packaging the printer. The printhead is best left in the
printer during transport.
6.
Empty Tray 1 and re-insert the paper picker stay (see
Removing the paper picker stay
on page 17) to secure the paper picking mechanism for transport.
7.
Re-package the printer in the original packaging material, keeping the printer level at
all times. See
Repackaging your printer
in the Appendices on page 105.
8.
Ensure transport labels on the exterior box clearly indicate that the box is to be kept
level at all times.
The printer should remain level at all times during transportation and storage. Failure to do so
may cause the printer to leak ink.
When re-installing at the new location, ensure there is sufficient free space around the
printer and that it is placed on a flat, level surface, as set out in the
Locating your printer
section on page 18.
For environmental requirements during storage and shipping, refer to
Specifications
on page 101.
