How do I repack the printer?

Before shipping the printer, make sure that you have the following parts for repacking:

  1. Insertion sheet for repacking
  2. Plastic bag for the waste toner box
  3. Plastic bags and orange protective covers for the toner cartridge (4 pieces that the toners were originally packed in.)
  4. The original orange packing material for locking the drum unit and the belt unit (4 pieces)
  5. A piece of paper (letter or A4) to protect the belt unit (Please prepare by yourself.)

 

  • Once your printer has been set up and used, we do not recommend that it be moved or shipped unless absolutely necessary.

  • Color laser printers are complex printing devices. Moving the printer or shipping it without properly removing the installed supplies can result in SEVERE damage to the printer. As a result, your printer may not operate properly afterwards.

  • Failure to properly prepare the printer for shipping may VOID YOUR WARRANTY.

  • If for any reason you must move or ship your printer, carefully re-pack the printer in the original packing material to avoid any damage during transport. The Printer should also be adequately insured with the shipping company you choose.
