Initial Preparations  
Prepare for printing as follows. This example shows a Postcard-size Color  
Ink / Paper Set (sold separately, =2) but the same steps are followed  
for other sizes.  
Avoid getting dust on ink sheets or paper, which may cause banding or  
damage the printer (=4).  
Do not hold the ink cassette with wet hands. Avoid touching the  
ink sheet, and avoid getting dust on it. Dirt or moisture may cause  
banding or affect print quality, tear ink sheets and prevent printing,  
or damage the printer (=4).  
When turning the sprocket, turn it gently, only until the sheet is taut.  
Forcing the sprocket or overtightening it may tear ink sheets and  
prevent printing, or SELPHY may run out of ink before paper.  
Never reuse ink cassettes, which may damage the printer or cause  
malfunction.  
Preparing the Ink Cassette  
Check the ink cassette and ink  
sheet.  
zzHolding the ink cassette without touching  
the ink sheet, check the size (such as  
“Postcard Size” or “Card Size”) to make  
sure it matches the size of paper you will

Avoiding Left Over Paper  
Making One Print from a Selected Image  
Note the following to prevent wasted paper, which occurs if ink is consumed  
faster than the paper.  
For a convenient way to make a single print of a selected image, follow  
these steps.  
Do not turn the sprocket too much when removing slack from the ink  
sheet (=8).  
To cancel printing in progress, always press the <v> button; after  
pressing the <v> button, never turn off the power before SELPHY is

prints where temperatures exceed 40 °C  
(104 °F), in humid or dusty places, or in  
direct sunlight.  
Also avoid the following actions, which may cause discoloration, fading,  
or bleeding: sticking tape on the printed surface, allowing the printed  
surface to contact vinyl or plastic, applying alcohol or volatile solvents to  
the printed surface, or leaving the printed surface pressed firmly against  
other surfaces or objects over extended periods.  
When storing prints in an album, choose an album with photo covers  
made of nylon, polypropylene, or cellophane.  
Store any extra ink cassettes in the original package or a bag, away  
from sunlight and dust.  
Store any unused paper or ink cassettes in their unopened  
packages, away from sunlight.  
Color may change over time or depending on storage conditions.  
Canon cannot be held liable for discoloration.
