Travel tips
The following tips will help you prepare for traveling with your printer:

wait to install new ink cartridges until you reach your destination. Until then, be sure to keep them in their
original packaging.
• Alwaysturnofftheprinterusing
(the Power button). This allows the printer to lock the cartridges in place
and protect them from drying out.
CAUTION! To avoid clogging the ink cartridge nozzles or damaging the printer, wait until all lights have
turned off completely before removing the battery or power cord. This process might take approximately
16 seconds. If the printer is not turned off properly, your next printouts might be streaked or missing colors.
If this happens, try cleaning the ink cartridges. For more information about cleaning ink cartridges, see the
user guide.
