Print and Noise Problems
PictureMate makes an unexpected noise after you
install a photo cartridge.
The first time you install the photo cartridge,
PictureMate will charge its print head for about three
minutes. Wait until charging finishes before you turn
it off, or it may charge improperly and use more ink
the next time you turn it on.
Your PictureMate makes an unexpected noise when
you turn it on or after it has been sitting for awhile.
PictureMate is performing routine maintenance.

nothing prints.
PictureMate may be preparing to print.
Make sure the print head nozzles are not clogged.
To clean the print head, see “Cleaning the Print
