Moving a Short Distance

Take the following precautions when moving the printer a short distance - for instance, when attaching an optional tray or relocating the printer inside the same room.

The machine weighs around 19.2 kg (42.4 lb) (28 kg (61.8 lb) with options installed).
To avoid injury to self and damage to the machine, lift the machine slowly and carefully by gripping the central areas near the base on both sides. When lifting the machine with options attached, have at least one other person assist you.
Careless handling and over exertion when lifting can result in breakage and/or injury.

Be sure to keep the printer level. If it is unduly tilted, ink will leak from the ink collector.

Turn the power off, disconnect the USB cable, or ethernet cable, and then unplug the power cord from the wall outlet.
Before moving the printer, be sure to disconnect the power cord from the printer, too.
Lift the printer and move it to the place where you want to install it.
Always lift and carry the printer with another person. Grip the indented area at the base of the printer's sides, as shown. Lift and carry the printer slowly and carefully.
Make sure the power cord is not trapped under the printer.
