Q:  When shipping a printer, what has to be done to move it safely?

A:  Remove the toner cartridge and place it in its own box.  If left in the printer, all of the toner could spill out.  If you still have the tabs which were removed from the printer when it was first unpacked, place the tabs back into the unit.  See the "Setting Up the Printer" Chapter in the Getting Started manual for printer setup information.
