Packing and shipping
the machine
B
When you transport the machine, use the
packing materials that came with your
machine. If you do not pack the machine
properly, any damage that may occur in
transit will not be covered by your warranty.
CAUTION
It is important to allow the machine to ‘park’
the print head after a print job. Listen
carefully to the machine before unplugging
it to make sure that all mechanical noise
has stopped. Not allowing the machine to
finish this parking process may lead to print
problems and possible damage to the print
head.
a Open the ink cartridge cover.
b Press the lock release lever to release
the ink cartridge and take out all the ink
cartridges. (See Replacing the ink
cartridges on page 167.)
c Install the green protective part and then
close the ink cartridge cover.
CAUTION
Make sure that the plastic tabs on both
sides of the green protective part (1) have
securely clicked into place (2).
If you are not able to find the green
protective part, DO NOT remove the ink
cartridges before shipping. It is essential
that the machine be shipped with either the
green protective part or the ink cartridges in
position. Shipping without them will cause
damage to your machine and may void your
warranty.
d Unplug the machine from the telephone
wall jack and take the telephone line
cord out of the machine.
e Unplug the machine from the AC power
outlet.
f (MFC-5890CN)
