• There are two ways to install the printer: tipping installation (installation by
four people) and lifting installation (installation by six people).
• Tipping installation (installation by four people) uses several special parts,
including the pieces attached to Stand casters to prevent slippage, the
black belts around the printer, and packaging material. Do not remove or cut
these parts. Otherwise, Tipping installation (installation by four people) is no
longer possible.
• Be sure to contact Canon dealer before transferring the printer to a new
location. Package the printer following the procedure of Lifting installation
and do not perform Tipping installation.
• When relocating the printer, follow steps described in "Assemble the Stand"
to "Remove the Packaging Material" in reverse order to repackage the
printer. In this case, Tipping installation (installation by four people) is not
available.
