Various Printing Operations

3.Adjust the paper feed guide to the width of the paper.

4.For manual feeding, load one sheet of paper in the sheet feeder, and press the ready / insert button.

Note

Only the glossy surface of paper can be subjected to Photo- graphic-Quality printing. Since the opposite surface cannot be printed on, make sure the paper is correctly oriented.

Important

∙ You may load as many as 20 sheets of Photographic-Quality

Paper at one time.

∙Fan the sheets before loading them on the sheet feeder. The printer may feed more than one sheet at one time when they are stuck together.

∙If you do not load the guide sheet with the Photographic- Quality Paper, the final sheet may not feed properly.

∙Always use the Photographic-Quality ink cartridges to print on the Photographic-Quality Paper. Printing with any other combination can damage the cartridge ribbon as well as the paper.

∙Remove both the Photographic-Quality Paper and the guide sheet before loading any other type of paper.

∙The guide sheet is not reusable. When you load a new set of Photographic-Quality Paper, make sure that you load them with the new guide sheet from the same package.

∙Note that when all the Photographic-Quality Paper has been fed from the sheet feeder, the printer will detect that the pa- per feeder is empty and will not feed the guide sheet. If you try to feed the guide sheet through the printer, it may get damaged. Do not use a damaged guide sheet in the printer.

∙Keep both used and unused sheets away from heat, humid- ity, dust, and direct sunlight.

∙The printed image on the Photographic-Quality Paper may discolor. Keep it out of contact with plastic, such as docu- ment holders, wallet windows, erasers, hairdressing items, and cosmetic items.

∙Keep all unused sheets in the original bag.
