Emptying the waste bin before moving the printer
The printer locks the waste bin in place until it needs emptying. However, you can use the Utilities
mode to unlock the waste bin so that you can empty it before the front panel message prompts you to
do so. See “Utilities mode menu structure” on page 7-4 for detailed information about the Utilities
mode.

When the printer is on and the Ready
message appears in the front panel, press the
UTILITIES button. You see this message
