Notes on LCD screen

Duplication, edition, or printing of a CD, TV

programs, copyrighted materials such as

pictures or publications, or any other materials

except for your own recording or creation is

limited to private or domestic use only. Unless

you hold copyright or have permission of

duplicated, use of those materials beyond this

limit may infringe the provisions of the

holder’s claim for damages.

When using photo images with this printer, pay

special attention not to infringe the provisions of

the copyright law. Any unauthorized use or

modification of others’ portrait may also infringe

their rights.

•The displayed image on the screen is not

identical in picture quality and colors with the

printed image because phosphor methods or

profiles differ. Please regard the displayed

image as just a reference.

•Do not press against the LCD screen. The

screen may be discolored and that may cause a

malfunction.

•Exposing the LCD screen to direct sunlight for

long periods may cause malfunctions.

•The LCD screen is manufactured using

extremely high-precision technology so over

99.99% of the pixels are operational for effective

use. However, there may be some tiny black

points and/or bright points (white, red, blue or

green in color) that constantly appear on the

LCD screen. These points are normal in the

manufacturing process and do not affect the

printing in any way.

For some demonstrations, performances, or

exhibits, photography may be forbidden.

•Images may trail across on the LCD screen in a

cold location. This is not a malfunction.

Backup recommendations

To avoid potential risk of data loss caused by

accidental operation or malfunction of the

printer, we recommend that you save a

backup copy of your data.

Additional information

On the AC adaptor

Precautions

• Be sure to use the AC adaptor supplied

with the printer. Do not use other AC

adaptors, as this may cause a

malfunction.

• Do not use the supplied AC adaptor to

other devices.

• Do not use an electrical transformer

(travel converter), as this may cause

overheat or a malfunction.

• In case the cord of the AC adaptor is

damaged, never use it any longer, as this

may cause danger.

On safety

• Be careful not to set or drop any heavy

objects on the power cord, or to damage

the power cord in any way. Never

operate this printer with a damaged

power cord.

• Should any solid object or liquid fall into

the cabinet, unplug the printer and have

it checked by qualified personnel before

operating it any further.

On moisture condensation

If the printer is brought directly from a

cold location to a warm location or placed

in an extremely warm or humid room,

moisture may condense inside the unit. In

such cases the printer will probably not

work properly and may even develop a

fault if you persist in using it. If moisture

condensation occurs, unplug the AC

power cord of the printer and do not use

the printer for at least one hour.

• Never disassemble the printer.

• To disconnect the power cord, pull it out

by the plug. Never pull the power cord

itself.

• When the printer is not going to be used

for an extended period of time,

disconnect the power cord from the wall

outlet.

• Do not handle the printer roughly.

• To reduce the risk of electrical shock,

always unplug the printer from the

electrical outlet before cleaning and

servicing the printer.

On transport

When you transport the printer, remove

the ink ribbon, paper tray, AC adaptor, the

memory card, or an external device from

the printer and put the printer and its

peripherals in the original box with the

protective packaging.

On installation

• Avoid placing the printer in a location

subject to:

If you no longer have the original box and

packing parts, use similar packing material

so that the printer will not be damaged

while being transported.

– vibration

– high humidity

– excessive dust

– direct sunlight

– extremely high or low temperatures

• Do not use electrical equipment near the

printer. The printer will not work

properly in electromagnetic fields.

• Do not place heavy objects on the

printer.

• Leave enough room around the printer

so that the ventilation holes are not

blocked. Blocking these holes may cause

internal heat build-up.

On cleaning

Clean the cabinet, panel and controls with

a soft dry cloth, or a soft cloth lightly

moistened with a mild detergent solution.

Do not use any type of solvent, such as

alcohol or benzine, which may damage the

finish.

• Never disassemble the ink ribbon.

• Do not pull out the ribbon from the ink

ribbon.

• Do not remove the ink ribbon while

printing.

On restrictions on duplication

If duplicating documents with the printer,

pay special attention to the following:

• Duplication of banknotes, coins, or

securities is against the law.

On print paper

• Duplication of blank certificates,

licenses, passports, private securities, or

unused postal stamps is also against the

law.

• TV program, films, video tapes, others’

portraits or other materials may be

copyrighted. Unauthorized video

printing of such materials may infringe

the provisions of the copyright law.

• The side without the imprinting is the

printing surface. Inferior print quality

may result if the printing surface is

contaminated with dust or fingerprints.

Be careful to avoid touching the printing

surface.

• Do not bend the paper or tear it off at the

perforations before printing.

• To avoid paper jam or malfunctions of

the printer, make sure the following

before printing:

On color print packs

– Do not write or type on the print

paper. Use the oil ink pen to write on

the paper after printing. You cannot

type on the print paper using an ink-

jet printer, etc.

Notes on use

On Ink ribbon

• Do not touch the ink ribbon or place the

ink ribbon in a dusty location.

– Do not attach sticker or stamps on the

print paper.

Fingerprints or dust on the ink ribbon

may result in imperfect printing.

• Do not rewind the ink ribbon and use

the rewound ink ribbon for printing.

Otherwise, proper printing result will

not be obtained, or even a malfunction

may occur.

– Do not fold or bend the print paper.

– Total number of print paper does not

exceed 20 sheets.

– Do not print on the used print paper.

Printing an image twice on the same

paper will not make the printed image

thicker.

If the ink ribbon does not click into

place, remove it and then re-insert it.

Only when the ink ribbon is too slack to

be loaded, wind the spool of the ink

ribbon in the direction of the arrow to

remove the slack.

– Use the print paper for this printer

only.

– Do not use the print paper ejected

without printed.

• Do not print on used sheets of print

paper or attempt to rewind the ribbon

inside the ink ribbon. Doing so could

result in damages to the printer.

• Do not remove the paper tray while

printing.

About the “Memory Stick”

What is “Memory Stick”?

• Avoid placing the ink ribbon in locations

subject to high temperature, high

humidity, excessive dust, or direct

sunlight. Please store it in a dark and

cold location and use it early. Depending

on the storage status, color elements of

the ink ribbon may deteriorate. Sony

shall assume no responsibilities for any

damage, loss or failed printed results

that may be caused by use of such ink

ribbon.

• Avoid leaving the printing surface of the

print paper in contact with a plastic

eraser or plastic desk mats that includes

vinyl chloride or plasticizer for an

extended period of time; color changes

or deterioration of the printed image

may occur.

“Memory Stick” is a compact-size IC

recording medium with a large capacity. It

has been designed not only for exchanging/

sharing digital data among “Memory Stick”

complaint products, but also for serving as

an insertable/removable external storage

medium that can save data.

Mass Storage System

Glossary

Various types devices for storing large

amounts of data, including all types of

disk drives (floppy disks, hard disks,

optical disks) or tape media. Unlike flash

memory, mass storage devices retain

data even when the PC or unit is turned

off.

DCF (Design rule for Camera File system)

This camera conforms with the DCF

(Design rule for Camera File system)

standard established by JEITA (Japan

Electronics and Information Technology

Industries Association) to maintain file

exchangeability and compatibility

between digital cameras and related

products. Complete exchangeability and

compatibility, however, are not

guaranteed.

“Memory Stick”/SD card

Compact, light, removable storage

media. For details see pages 65 to 67.

PictBridge

A standard specified by Camera &

Imaging Products Association that

allows you to connect PictBridge-

complaint digital camera directly to the

printer without a PC, enabling direct

printing on the spot.

DPOF (Digital Print Order Format)

The format used to record the

information necessary for automatically

printing images shot by a digital camera

at a printing shop or with a home-use

printer. The printer supports DPOF

printing and can automatically print the

preset number of copies of the DPOF

preset images.

Thumbnails

Miniature images for representing the

original images that are stored in the

image files taken by a digital camera.

The printer uses thumbnails in the image

list.

Exif 2.21 (Exif Print)

Exif (Exchangeable image file format for

digital cameras) Print is a global

standard for digital photo printing. A

digital camera supporting Exif Print

stores the data relevant to the conditions

of shooting as each shot is taken. The

printer utilises the Exif Print data stored

in each image file to ensure the printed

result matches the original shot as

closely as possible^*1.

*1 When the “Auto Fine Print 3” is enabled

and an image (JPEG file) is shot by an Exif

Print (Exif 2.21)-compliant digital camera,

the image is automatically adjusted to its

optimum picture quality and printed.
