Basic Operations
Initial Preparations
Prepare for printing as follows. This example shows a Postcard-size (4x6
in.) Color Ink / Paper Set (sold separately, =
2), but the same steps are
followed for other sizes.
Avoid getting dust on ink sheets or paper, which may cause banding or
damage the printer (=
4).
Preparing the Ink Cassette
Check the ink cassette and ink
sheet.
Holding the ink cassette without touching
the ink sheet, check the size (such as
“Postcard (4x6 in.) Size” or “Card Size”)
to make sure it matches the size of paper
you will print on.
Make sure the ink sheet is taut. Loose
ink sheets may tear when loaded. If
the sheet is loose, turn the sprocket as
shown.
For an ink cassette that has a lock on
the bottom, press the lock (as shown)
to release it as you turn the sprocket to
make the sheet taut.
Ink sheet
•Do not hold the ink cassette with wet hands. Avoid touching the
ink sheet, and avoid getting dust on it. Dirt or moisture may cause
banding or affect print quality, tear ink sheets and prevent printing,
or damage the printer (=
4).
•When turning the sprocket, turn it gently, only until the sheet is taut.
Forcing the sprocket or overtightening it may tear ink sheets and
prevent printing, or SELPHY may run out of ink before paper.
•Never reuse ink cassettes, which may damage the printer or cause
malfunction.
