Ensure proper packaging
About this task
v When shipping a cartridge, use the original or better packaging.
v Always ship or store a cartridge in a jewel case.
v Use only a recommended shipping container that securely holds the cartridge in its jewel case during
transportation. Ultrium Turtlecases (by Perm-A-Store) are tested and found to be satisfactory (see
Figure 117). They are available at http://www.turtlecase.com.
v Never ship a cartridge in a commercial shipping envelope. Always place it in a box or package.
v If you ship the cartridge in a cardboard box or a box of a sturdy material, ensure the following:
– Place the cartridge in polyethylene plastic wrap or bags to protect it from dust, moisture, and other
contaminants.
– Pack the cartridge snugly; do not allow it to move around.
– Double-box the cartridge (place it inside a box, then place that box inside the shipping box) and add
padding between the two boxes (see Figure 118 on page 116).
