Be careful when moving the printer. Take the following precautions:
Turn off the main power. For details about how to turn the main power off, see Turning On/Off the Power.
Close all covers and trays, including the front cover and bypass tray.
If the optional paper feed unit is attached, remove it from the printer and move the optional paper feed unit and the printer separately.
Be sure to place the printer on a smooth and stable place.
Keep the printer level and carry it carefully, taking care not to jolt or tip it. Rough handling may cause a malfunction or damage the memory, resulting in loss of stored files.
Protect the printer from strong shocks. Impact can damage the memory, causing a malfunction of the printer.
Be sure to check the following:
The main power switch is turned off.
The power cord is unplugged from the wall outlet.
The interface cable is unplugged from the printer.
Lift the printer by using the inset grips on both side of the printer, and then move it horizontally to the place where you want to install it.
If you removed options, reattach them.
For details, see the relevant sections in this manual.
Be sure to move the printer horizontally. To prevent toner from scattering, move the printer slowly.
