Repacking the Color Printer
and Its Accessories
Overview
It is very important that you follow the correct repacking procedure before shipping the color printer.
Complete repacking is required. Failure to properly repack the printer can damage the printer’s internal
components.
You are responsible for any shipping damage to the printer that results from improper or
inadequate packaging.
Repacking for shipment consists of five basic tasks. Each of these tasks is explained below. If you have
questions regarding any of the repacking procedures, call the Tektronix Customer Support Hotline at
1-800-835-6100 , or contact Tektronix online at www.tek.com/Color_Printers/support/ .
1.
Turn off the printer using the On/Off switch.
2.
Wait 30 minutes before moving the printer to allow the ink to solidify.
3.
Remove the maintenance tray, seal it in a plastic bag, and store the tray on a flat
surface.
A used maintenance tray leaks drum fluid if tipped.
4.
Lock the printhead transit restraint on the right side of the printer.
5. Repack the printer and its accessories using Tektronix-approved packing materials.
Turning off the printer
Use the rear-panel On/Off switch to turn off the printer. Doing so places the printhead in the proper
position for locking (described below), which is necessary for safe shipment.
Do not turn off the printer by
pulling the power cord.
Caution
To avoid damaging the printer’s internal components, always turn the printer
power off using the
On/Off switch. Failure to do so may result in damage to the
printer’s internal components during shipment.
Waiting for 30 minutes
1.
After turning off the printer, let it cool down for at least 30 minutes before you move
it so that the melted ink inside the printer has time to solidify.
2.
Disconnect the power cord and other cables from the printer.
3.
Remove the media tray from the printer.
4.
If present, disconnect the Lower Paper Tray Assembly cable from the printer.

Removing the maintenance tray
Caution
To avoid damaging the printer, always remove the maintenance tray before moving
or shipping the printer. Never ship a partially used maintenance tray.
1.
Open the printer’s front cover.
2.
Grasp the maintenance tray by the front edge and lift up while sliding it out of the
printer. Once you’ve removed the maintenance tray, keep it level.
Caution
A used maintenance tray leaks drum fluid if tipped. Keep the maintenance tray
level to prevent spills. Contact with maintenance tray fluid poses no health risk.
3.
Place the used maintenance tray in a plastic bag and seal the bag. Store the used
maintenance tray for future use.
Do not ship a partially used maintenance tray .

Locking the transit restraint
Caution
To avoid damaging the printer, always lock the transit restraint before moving or
shipping the printer.
1.
Locate the transit restraint on the right side of the printer.
2.
Insert a wide flat-blade screwdriver into the transit restraint slot.
3.
While pressing inward with strong pressure, turn the transit restraint slot clockwise to
lock the printhead in place. If you have trouble turning the lock, consider the
following suggestions:
■
Make sure that the printer was turned off using the On/Off switch.
This places the printhead in the proper position for locking. If you
are in doubt about how the printer was turned off, turn the printer on
again. After waiting for a minute, turn the power off using the
On/Off switch.
■
You may need to press inward on the lock with more force before you
can turn the lock
clockwise .
