Notes on Handling Finished Prints
In order to preserve finished prints in the best condition,
always observe the following points. Failure to observe
these points could result in a deterioration of print quality
or injury.
≥
Do not affix cellophane tape to the printed surface.
Particularly be careful not to let plastic desk pads,
business card cases, or plastic erasers come into
contact with the printed surface.
≥
Do not touch the printed surface with your fingers.
≥
Do not spill or apply volatile solvents such as alcohol to
the printed surface. Doing so could result in
discolouration or fading.
≥
Do not leave printed surfaces in contact with one
another. Doing so could cause colour transfer between
the two images. Colour transfer could also occur if a
printed surface is left in contact with any other type of
paper under pressure for an extended period of time.
≥
Do not store prints under conditions of high
temperatures or high humidity. Leaving prints under
such conditions for an extended period of time could
cause a deterioration in print quality. Do not leave prints
exposed to direct sunlight.
≥
When prints are to be stored in an album, select an
album that has nylon pockets. Other materials could
cause colour transfer or discolouration. (Polypropylene
and cellophane are also acceptable materials.)
ª
Notes on Automatic Printing
≥
Auto Print may stop if the Photo Printer’s speed is
slowed down due to its cooling mechanisms. In this
case, perform the Auto Print through the Digital Video
Camera again.
≥
If several photoshots were recorded consecutively,
some prints may be skipped during Auto Print.
≥
If the ink or paper is replaced while Auto Print is in
progress, one image may be inadvertently printed twice.
≥
The Auto Print function cannot be used to print multiple
copies of the same image in succession.
≥
To stop Auto Print while it is in progress, press the stop
button on the Digital Video Camera. Pressing the
CANCEL button on the Photo Printer will not stop Auto
Printing.
≥
A continuous photoshot pictures cannot be Auto Printed.
ª
Notes on Cards
≥
If a card’s image does not display properly, turn off the
power, remove the card, and reinsert it.
≥
Titles combined with stamps and other such things
recorded to cards may not always display on the Digital
Video Camera.
ª
Notes on the SD Memory Card Write-
Protect Switch
≥
The SD Memory Card has a write-protect switch. Sliding
the switch to [LOCK] prevents the recording of data to
the card as well as the deletion of data from the card.
Sliding back the switch permits such operations.

Notes on Storing Settings to the Photo
Printer’s Memory
When the following settings are configured, they will
remain stored until they are altered again, even if the
power is turned off. (If the Photo Printer’s power is turned
off by disconnecting the Power Cable instead of pressing
the power button, all configurations will be lost.)
≥
[Input], under [BASIC]
≥
Creation dates in [Card], under [BASIC]
≥
The screen division number in [Multi] and [Album] under
[FUNCTION]
≥
[COLOUR] and [BRIGHT] in [LCD], under [OPTION]

≥
Colour settings in [Set colour], located under [Calendar]
in [FUNCTION]

Notes on the Screen Saver
When the same picture displays for an extended period of
time, an after-image may be burned into the LCD Monitor
depending on the picture. However, the monitor will not
be broken. If this occurs, turning off the power and leaving
it off for several hours will cause the after-image to
disappear. To prevent after-images from occurring, the
Photo Printer contains a setting that can cause a screen
saver to display if no operations are performed on the
printer within 30 minutes.

Notes on Handling the Digital Photo
Printer
≥
When spraying or using insecticides or other volatile
solvents in the vicinity of the Photo Printer, be careful
not to allow any to come into contact with the printer. If
such solvents come into contact with the printer, they
can damage the outer case and cause the surface to
peel. Do not allow rubber or plastic products to be in
contact with the printer for extended periods of time
either.
≥
When not using the Photo Printer for extended periods
of time, turn off the power and disconnect the Power
Cable from the outlet to conserve energy. (0,04A of
electricity are still used when the power button alone is
turned off and the computer is on STAND BY.) Since
damage to the printer may be incurred, turn on the
power at least once every 6 months and use the Photo
Printer.
≥
When transporting this printer, during a move for
example, pack the printer back into its original case. If
you no longer possess the case, wrap the printer in a
blanket or some other such cloth material to prevent any
damage. (Remove the Paper Cassette and the Ink
Cassette, and close the lid.)
ª
Installation Notes
≥
Install the Photo Printer away from other devices that
generate magnetic fields.
≥
The magnetic fields generated by stereo speakers or
large motors will distort the pictures produced by the
Photo Printer. Electromagnetic waves produced in this
Photo Printer and in televisions, video games, and other
devices can cause mutual interference, disrupting both
the display on the television screen and the print picture.
