-If the card containing print images is inserted:

Turns off about 10 minutes later.

-If the card contains no print images: Turns off about 5 minutes later.

Refer to page 48 when paper jam occurs.

During printing, the paper moves forward and backward several times. You can be cut if you touch the paper during this operation.

Printing in cold or hot temperatures may take a little more time.

ªNotes on Handling Finished

Prints

In order to preserve finished prints in the best condition, observe the following points. Failure to observe these points could result in a deterioration of print quality or injury.

Do not affix cellophane tape to the printed surface. In particular, be careful not to let plastic desk pads, business card cases, or plastic erasers come into contact with the printed surface.

Rubbing the surface with a hard object and scratching will cause surface flaws or color fade-out.

Do not touch the printed surface with your fingers.

Do not spill or apply volatile solvents such as alcohol to the printed surface. Doing so could result in discoloration or fading.

Do not leave printed surfaces in contact with one another. Doing so could cause color transfer between the two images. Color transfer could also occur if a printed surface is left in contact with any other type of paper under pressure for an extended period of time.

Do not store prints under conditions of high temperatures or high humidity. Leaving prints under such conditions for an extended period of time could cause

a deterioration in print quality. Do not leave prints exposed to direct sunlight.

ªOptimal Use of the Battery

Battery Characteristics

This Battery is a rechargeable lithium ion battery. Its ability to generate power is based upon the chemical reaction that takes place inside it. This reaction is susceptible to the surrounding temperature and humidity, and, if the temperature is too high or too low, the operating time of the Battery becomes shorter. If the Battery is used in an extremely cold environment, the possible printing number may be reduced.

The number of sheets that can be printed with the supplied battery is as follows:

At a low temperature: approx. 10 sheets

At a high temperature: approx. 20 sheets

If the Battery becomes extremely hot, a protective function may operate, and the Battery may become unusable for a while.

Be Sure to Detach the Battery after Use

Be sure to detach the Battery from the printer after use. (If it is left attached to the printer, a minute amount of current is consumed even when the printer power is off.) If the Battery is left attached to the printer for a long time, over discharge takes place. The Battery may become unusable after it is charged.

Disposing of an Unusable Battery

The Battery has a limited life.

Do not throw the Battery into fire because it may cause an explosion.
