BEFORE PRINTING
•
Fingerprints or dust on the paper’s printing surface may degrade the print quality and cause
paper jams. When the manual feed & cut mode has been selected, repeat the FEED &
CUT procedure three times after replacing the print paper. When the print paper with the
post card printing on its reverse side is installed, repeat five times. If you omit cutting the
print paper by the FEED & CUT procedure, first two or three prints may not be printed
partly because of finger oil or dirt.
•
When the print paper is abruptly transferred from a cool place to a hot place, vapor or dew
is generated on the paper’s surface causing paper jams or degraded print quality. Leave
the print paper in the room to stabilize its temperature before using it.
•
If you repeat the FEED & CUT procedure more than the designated number of times while
installing the print paper, the indicated number of prints may not be made. In addition, if you
replace the print paper before it is used up, the indicated number of prints may not be
made.
