Print and Noise Problems

The first time you install the photo cartridge, PictureMate will charge its print head for about three minutes. Wait until charging finishes before you turn it off, or it may charge improperly and use more ink the next time you turn it on.

Your PictureMate makes an unexpected noise when you turn it on or after it has been sitting for awhile.

Make sure the print head nozzles are not clogged. To clean the print head, see “Cleaning the Print Head” on page 66.

PictureMate won’t work properly if it’s tilted or at an angle. Place it on a flat, stable surface that extends beyond the printer base in all directions.
