Storing and Displaying PictureMate Pal 
Prints

Photos printed on PictureMate Pal photo paper are beautiful, 
long-lasting images. Follow these guidelines to make sure they 
will look great for generations. 

Storing Your Prints

Do not rub the printed side of the photo. 

Do not stack photos with the printed sides touching.

Displaying Your Prints

Let prints sit for 24 hours before framing. 

To ensure prints will last as long as possible, display them 
under glass or in photo albums. 

Keep prints out of the sun to help prevent fading. 

Storing Unused Paper

Return unused paper to the original package. Store paper flat 
to prevent curling, and keep it away from extreme 
temperatures, high humidity, and bright light.

is not printing.

Replacing the Print Pack

message on the photo viewer screen.

The PictureMate 200 Series Print Pack contains a new photo 
cartridge and photo paper. 

Tip:

replace the Print Pack and continue the current print job. Just 
replace it without turning off and unplugging PictureMate Pal.

Epson’s warranty.

To ensure good results, use a genuine PictureMate 200 Series photo 
cartridge and do not refill it. Other products may cause ink spills or
