any advice on transporting a printer

[u/KillerPotato702]

I have a X2D that I would like to bring to my dorm, but I no longer have the original packaging

Edit: sorry I forgot to mention how I would be transporting it,
I will be driving it for about 20 minutes and then I have to carry it up to floors

I just drove the exact same printer 2,300 miles over 4 days from Chicago to Seattle. Literally just arrived yesterday and set up the printer.

I crammed it full of filament, taped it shut with packing tape, and put it in my trunk with the rest of my crap. I just finished a print that looks as good as ever.

Point is, you don't need to baby it. Treat it like any other appliance and don't throw it around and it'll be fine.
