PictureMate makes an unexpected noise after you
install a photo cartridge.
The first time you install the photo cartridge,
PictureMate charges its print head for about three and
a half 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 a while.
PictureMate is performing routine maintenance.
PictureMate sounds as though it is printing, but
nothing prints.
● PictureMate may be preparing to print.
● The print head may need cleaning. See page 37.
● PictureMate won’t work properly if it’s tilted or at
an angle. Place it on a flat, stable surface.
● Make sure paper is not jammed and is loaded
correctly, and make sure the handle is not resting
on the paper. See page 8.
The printer lid (paper support) snaps off.
Replace the lid by inserting the hinges in the brackets.
Your memory card does not work correctly.
● Insert only one card at a time.
● Make sure you are using a compatible memory
card. See page 6.
● PictureMate recognizes and can print the first
9,990 photos on a memory card.
● Photos must be in JPEG format and taken with a
DCF-compliant camera.
● PictureMate cannot read progressive-scan JPEG
files or RAW files.
● Make sure to format your memory card in your
camera.
PictureMate does not recognize a thumb drive.
You can only use the EXT. I/F port to connect your
PictBridge-enabled camera or the optional Bluetooth
Photo Print Adapter.
To print photos stored on a USB thumb drive, first copy
them to your computer. Then you can use PictureMate
to print from your computer or copy the photos to a
memory card. See the online User’s Guide for
instructions.
