How do you store a Pro 10 printer for some months?

swcng2001 — Thu, 12 Jun 2014 12:16:53 GMT

I will be away for a period of 2 or more months. So how do I store a Pro 10 printer fully loaded with all its ink cartridges? Also, in the near future, I will be relocating to another country and I need to ship all my equipment. I don't expect problems with anything else except for the Pro 10.

Any recommendations will be appreciated.

Thanks.

Turn it off.

won't the inks dry up and clog the print heads?

I have three of these and none gets used every day. Some only once a month or so and no the inks don't dry up. Is it the best practice for max ink useage? No. I doubt it is but it does not hurt anything.
