Storing the Printed Photos

OO When both edges of a print have perforations, you can remove the edges

by bending them. OO Use an oil-based pen to write on prints.

OO To prevent discoloration, do not store prints in places subject to temperatures of over 40 °C (104 °F), humid or dusty places, or in direct sunlight.

OO Avoid the following actions as they may result in color change, color fading or color bleeding: Sticking any type of adhesive tape on a print surface, allowing print surfaces to come into contact with vinyl or plastic,

applying alcohol or other volatile solvents to a print surface, or leaving the print surface tightly pressed against other surfaces or objects for prolonged periods.

OO If you wish to mount prints in an album, select an album with photo covers made of nylon, polypropylene or cellophane.

OO Color may change over time or depending on storage conditions. Canon assumes no liability for color changes.

Cleaning Up After Printing

Turn off SELPHY (p. 11)‌ , then remove the memory card or USB flash memory.

Lower the screen (LCD monitor) flat for storage.

Unplug the power cord from the power outlet and disconnect the adapter plug from SELPHY. OO If the compact power adapter is hot, wait until it has cooled down before you store it.

Remove the paper cassette and close the paper cassette compartment cover. Keep the remaining paper inside the cassette and store the cassette in a dark, cool, and dry place free from dust.

OO Keep the ink cassette inside SELPHY.

OO Store SELPHY horizontally, in a dark place free from dust. Dust and dirt may cause white lines on photos or damage the printer.

OO When you have more than one ink cassette, keep one inside SELPHY, and keep the other inside the original packaging or a bag to protect it from dust, and store it in a dark place.

OO When storing new paper and ink cassettes, leave them in unopened packages, and keep them in a dark place.

Maintaining the Printer

To prevent dust and dirt from causing lines on photos and to ensure the print quality, clean SELPHY regularly using the supplied cleaner unit (p. 2)‌ before printing and when changing the ink cassette. Note that the cleaning unit may not be included in some regions.

Cleaning SELPHY.

OO Remove the ink cassette if it is inserted.

OO Insert the cleaner unit with the arrow side up as shown fully and then pull out. Repeat this several times.

OO Store the cleaner unit in a bag to prevent dust after cleaning.

OO Do not touch the white part of the cleaner unit as it will not clean as effectively.

OO Do not use any cleaning kits other than the supplied cleaner unit. Doing so may cause the printer

to malfunction.

 

OO If lines still appear on photos after cleaning, contact a Canon Customer Support Help Desk.
