F. INSTALLING/REMOVING THE CUT WASTE BIN

The cut waste bin captures the strips of paper cut from 

between photos before and after a photo is printed.  This bin 

should be emptied every time you finish a roll of photo paper.
To remove the cut waste bin, first remove photo tray.  Remove 

the cut waste bin by lifting up and pulling out.

Note:  

When emptying the cut waste bin, the photo tray and the cut waste 

bin can be removed together since they snap together.

To install the cut waste bin, make sure the notch is facing out, 

then push in and down.
