OK. You see a confirmation message.

exit.
If the paper has ink marks, select Yes and press
OK, then press OK again to feed a clean sheet of
paper.

clean it several times a year. Follow these steps:

disconnect the power adapter and any USB cable
or device.
2Remove all paper, then use a soft brush to clean
any dust or dirt from the paper feeder and output
tray.
3Clean the PictureMate exterior with a soft, damp
cloth.
4Use a soft, dry cloth to clean the PictureMate
photo viewer screen. Do not use liquid or
chemical cleaners on it.
