Setting up the printer after transporting it
The steps you need to take to set up the printer after transporting
it are almost identical to the steps carried out the first time you
set up the printer. When you set up the printer again, see the Setup
Guide, and note the following points.
❏ Do not forget to remove any protective materials.
❏ Do not forget to pull the green tab on the left side of the print
head to release the print head.
c
Caution:
Do not push down the green tab; otherwise you may break it.
❏ The first time you start printing after transporting the printer,
or if you have not turned on the printer for a long time, the
print head nozzles may be clogged. Epson recommends that
you perform a nozzle check and clean the print head, and also
realign the print head to ensure print quality.
To perform a nozzle check using the control panel, see
“Checking the print head nozzles” on page 246.
