Introduction
This document covers repacking a XANTÉ PlateMaker 3, Accel-a-Writer 3 series, ScreenWriter 3, or
StockMaker printer for shipment. Damage resulting from incorrect packing voids your printer warranty.
To keep the warranty valid, you must follow the packing procedure in this document.
Before You Begin
The printer should be repacked in its original packing and shipping materials. If you no longer have part
or all of these materials, contact either XANTÉ Customer Support (at 800-540-7091 in the US or Canada
or at 334-473-6502 elsewhere) or your XANTÉ vendor to order replacements.
Before returning the printer for service, you must obtain an RGA (Return Goods Authorization) number
from XANTÉ.

• Manuals and Software • Toner Cartridge • Power Cord
• Duplexer • Paper Cassette Feeder(s) • Additional Cassette(s)
(if applicable) (if applicable) and covers (if applicable)
• 2000 Sheet Feeder • Oversize Media Support
(if applicable) (if applicable)
These items are to be stored according to the guidelines in your printer user’s guide or returned to their
original packaging.
