During printing, the PRINT indicator is lit.

It takes about 70 seconds for a printout to emerge from the film outlet. Once printing has been completed, the PRINT indicator goes off, and the unit returns to READY status.

Notes

•During printing, do not open the covers.

•To prevent film jamming, do not allow more than 30 printouts to remain on the film output slot. The message “REMOVE PRINTS” may appear even if the number of printouts less than 30 has accumulated, depending on the usage environmental condition.

•Do not put the printout, which has been removed from the film output slot, back inside the film output slot. This may cause film jamming.

If the unit does not print

When an error message is displayed in the LCD, the unit does not print. Take remedies according to “Messages” (on page 25).

Notes on storing your printouts

•Do not leave the printouts in direct sunlight or bright room light. Store in a cool and low humid place (under 77 °F (25 °C)). We recommend storing the printouts in a polypropylene pouch in a cabinet.

•Do not allow any volatile organic solvent such as water or alcohol to come in contact with the printouts. This can cause fading of the printout. If the printouts come in contact with such liquid, wipe them off quickly.

•Adhesives from cellophane tape or PVC will cause fading of the printout. Be careful when storing printouts.

•Do not stack the printouts on or under a freshly developed diazo copy sheet as this could cause the film sheets to fade or stick to each other.
