Eco Tank Printer
Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

Can the Eco Tank printer be safely shipped via air freight. (I’m not sure if the ink bottles will leak during flight.). I sponsor a school outside the U.S. and would like to ship one via air.

If the printer is sued and the ink is already in the printer the box must be in a horizontal position all the time with the printer's bottom side facing down. If during the transport or loading the box is tilted for a longer period or loaded upside down it will leak for sure.

If the printer is new and unused the ink bottles are sealed and there is no chance of a leak.
