maintain the quality of your photo paper

To ensure high-quality prints, it is important to maintain the quality of your photo paper. This section provides information about storing and handling your photo paper.

store photo paper

Keep unused photo paper in the photo paper storage bag that was shipped with your printer. Store the packaged photo paper on a flat surface in a cool, dry place.

When you are ready to print, remove only the paper you plan to use immediately. When you have finished printing, return any unused photo paper to the photo paper storage bag and seal it.

Note: Do not leave unused paper in the printer’s paper tray. The paper may start to curl, which may reduce the quality of your photographs. Photo paper should be flat before printing.

handle photo paper

Always hold photo paper by the edges. Fingerprints on photo paper can reduce print quality.

If the corners of the photo paper curl, place the paper in a resealable plastic bag and gently bend it in the opposite direction of the curl until the paper lies flat.

store the paper trays

For safe and convenient storage of your printer, the Out and In trays fold up into your printer. You can store the paper trays by following these steps:

1Turn off the printer.

2Lift the main cover.

3Lift and fold back the Out tray.
