Tips for printing

To get the best printing results, be sure to read the instruction manual of the

application you are using. Information on how to change the resolution and

image size is especially important. In addition, read the following tip.

Print in an environment with as large color display capability as possible.

The number of available colors of some applications is determined according to

the display color setting of the PC used in printing. To print the best images

possible, it is recommended to print from a system capable of displaying 64000

colors or 16.77 million colors if possible.

Adjust the image size and resolution (with an application that prints images

according to the resolution of the printer).

If the application in use is capable of adjusting the image resolution and size,

set the resolution to 320 dpi and the size to 1280 x 960 pixels or smaller. (If the

image size in pixels is larger, the image may be printed on more than one sheet

of print paper.)

Care and storage

Beware of moisture condensation.

Moisture condensation means that water vapor in the air becomes liquid and

sticks to the printer surface. This phenomenon is caused by the following.

Rapidly heating the room in which the printer is placed

Cool air (from an air conditioner, etc.) blown directly at the printer

Moving the printer from a cold place to a warm place

Moisture in the air will condense on the paper, deteriorating print quality or

causing paper jams.

Under conditions where moisture condensation has occurred or may occur, do not

operate the printer until it is dry or until there is no possibility that condensation

will occur.

Do not spray volatile solvent on the printer or allow the printer to be in

contact with rubber or plastic products for an extended period of time.

For example, spraying an insecticide on the printer or wiping it with thinner or

benzine may deteriorate or discolor the printer cabinet. Such deterioration and

discoloring also occurs if the printer is in contact with rubber or plastic products

for an extended period of time.

Operate the printer at least once every six months.

If the printer is not used for an extended period of time, it may malfunction.

Operate the printer at least once every six months.

Carry the printer with both hands.

When lifting or carrying the printer, use both hands.

Transport the printer carefully.

When transporting the printer, place it in the original box with the original

packing material. If you don't have the original packaging, pack the printer with

enough cushioning material to absorb any impacts during transportation. Be sure

to remove the SmartMedia, CompactFlash and automatic feeder from the printer.

supply to the printer, remove the rechargeable

battery if possible. This will help prevent deteriora-

tion of the rechargeable battery.

If the printer power cord is accidentally unplugged

from the printer during printing, turn the printer

OFF, plug the printer power cord into the printer's

DC power input connector, and then turn the printer

ON again. Leaving the printer unplugged in printing

mode may cause it to malfunction.

Cautions

Loading print paper in the paper feed

cassette

• Be careful not to stain or

damage the paper feed

guide.

• Do not touch the print

surface (the glossy

surface with nothing

printed on it) when

handling print paper.

Open the top case of the paper feed cassette by

holding the finger hooks on both sides of the

cassette.

• Do not leave print paper

in a place subject to

excessive dust. Clear

prints cannot be obtained

if dust or fingerprints are

installed on the print

surface.

• To prevent malfunction,

use the dedicated print

paper only.

• The maximum number

of print paper sheets that

can be placed in the

paper feed cassette is 25.

Be careful not to exceed

this number when

adding print paper. If too

many print paper sheets

are loaded, the printer

may jam.

Hold the bundle of print paper sheets so that the

protective sheet is on top, then insert the bundle

into the paper feed cassette pocket. After inserting

the print paper, remove the protective sheet. Each

bundle of sheets can consist of up to 25 sheets of

print paper.

• To prevent paper jam, do

not fold or bend print

paper.

• Do not write on print

paper before printing

images on it. If you want

to write something, be

sure to write it after

printing, using an oil-

based ink. It is not

possible to print word

processor or typewriter

characters on print

paper.

Close the top case. Close the top case of the paper
