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 13.6 kg (30.0 lb) (GX e2600).
The machine weighs around 14.0 kg (30.9 lb) (GX e3300N/GX e3350N).
The machine weighs around 19.1 kg (42.1 lb) (GX e7700N).
Grip the center area at the base of the printer's sides. Lift it slowly and do not strain your body.
When moving the printer, remove the option. Careless handling and over exertion when lifting can result in breakage and/or injury.

Unplug the power cord from the wall outlet before you move the machine. While moving the machine, take care that the power cord is not damaged under the machine. Failing to take these precautions could result in fire or electric shock.

Before installing or removing options, always disconnect the power cord plugs from the wall outlet and allow time for the main unit to fully cool. Failing to take these precautions could result in burns.

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

Press and hold down the [Power] key on the printer until it turns off, and then unplug the power cord.
Disconnect the USB cable or Ethernet cable.
If an option is installed, remove it.
Lift the printer and move it to the place where you want to install it.
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.
