Courier Notes
A practical floor note on courier instructions for ink, media, parts and demo stock moving to site.
When a printer, stand or roll media kit goes out, the booking needs more than an address. Courier Notes is our guide to listing crate size, pallet count, fragile items and site contact details for Epson hardware and graphic-arts samples.
Courier Notes records the details a driver and receiving team need before ink, media, parts or a demo unit leaves eProfile. We note branch, destination, package type and handling marks for moves into Gauteng, KZN and the Western Cape. If you need the matching version for your shipment, use the contact form.
Booking details that prevent delivery mistakes
- Delivery site and access time listed
- Photo of packed item and labels
- Waybill number or stock code recorded
- Receiving contact named as site uses it
Check the related hardware and media pages after this note. They help when the consignment includes an Epson printer, stand, take-up unit or sample rolls that must match the job booked out.
How Courier Notes guide Epson hardware drops to Gauteng print teams
Courier Notes sets out what eProfile wants marked clearly when ink, media, parts or demo stock are sent to site. Good labels, the right contact details and sensible packing make a difference when Epson graphic-arts equipment is moving between branches or customer floors.
Start with what is moving, how it is packed and who will receive it. Cape Town weather, Highveld dust and load shedding can change wrapping, dispatch timing and the need for sealed cartons. Our courier notes cover Epson graphic-arts stock travelling between eProfile branches, demo spaces and customer production sites.
Include a first photo before the parcel is closed and handed over. Show the crate, carton or pallet label clearly, plus any fragile corners, loose accessories or media ends that need extra protection. That record helps when a printer arrives with a stand, spindle set or ink box missing from the load.
What the dispatch record must show
Each note should leave a plain trail of what went out, who signed, and which Epson item was booked under the job. We focus on crate count, pallet count, accessory boxes and site contacts rather than loose messages that are hard to trace later.
Link Courier Notes with the matching dispatch record and any studio reference before adding extra items to the load. Check the booking against serial numbers, media sizes and delivery access before the vehicle departs.
Conditions that affect courier handover
We account for warehouse cut-off times, airport freight handling and buildings with narrow lifts or restricted loading bays. Some deliveries go to active print rooms, not empty storerooms, so receiving staff may need advance notice for larger Epson units. When equipment is live on jobs, the note should separate urgent consumables from non-urgent demo stock.
Coastal moisture can matter when rolls and cartons sit in transit or on a dock before booking in. Inland dust makes sealed wrapping and taped ports more important on hardware moving between sites. Power interruptions also affect when collections happen and whether a branch can test a unit immediately before dispatch.

Complete the courier note while the consignment is still on site and easy to verify. Pair it with a stock list, media description or job reference when the load includes samples, replacement parts or a demo printer heading to a customer visit.
