 Usage Location

Do not place the devices on an unstable or tilted table or desk, as there is risk that the devices may fall and cause injury.

Page 13

CAUTIONS

 Devices

Do not block the air vents on the printer. Blocking the vents may cause the inside of the printer to overheat, resulting in damage to internal components and risk of equipment failure or fire. Use the devices in a well-ventilated area.

Do not rest heavy objects on the devices. Objects may fall off the devices and cause injury. Weight placed on the devices may deform the casing, resulting in damage to internal parts and posing risk of fire.

Unplug the devices when you are not using them. If the devices remain plugged in, there is risk that accidental contact with the device’s internal parts may cause electric shock. Leaving the devices plugged in during prolonged periods of non-use poses risk of fire.

Do not remove the paper cassette from the printer while printing is in progress. Paper moves back and forth in the cassette four times during printing. Placing your hand in the way of moving paper may result in injury. Wait for printing to finish completely before removing the cassette. Never place your hand into the paper cassette slot.

Do not reach into internal parts of the devices except as specified in the operating instructions. Reaching into inappropriate parts of the devices may cause your hand to

become caught or injured.

 Power

Do not move the devices while they are plugged in. Doing so may damage the AC cable. Continued use of a damaged AC cable poses risk of fire or electric shock.

Do not excessively bend or twist the AC cable. Doing so may damage the cable. Continued use of a damaged cable poses risk of fire or equipment failure. Leave about 10 cm (4 in.) of clearance around the devices to ensure adequate ventilation.

Do not pull on the AC cable. Doing so may damage the cable. Continued use of a damaged cable poses risk of fire or electric shock. Always hold the cable by the plug area when unplugging it.

Page 14

 Usage Location

Do not use the devices in locations that are smoky, humid, dusty, or subject to strong vibration. Entry of water or dust into the devices, or internal damage caused by strong

vibration, may pose risk of fire or electric shock. Have the devices checked approximately once a year (contact your dealer), preferably before the onset of your area’s humid season.

Do not leave the devices exposed to high temperatures. Do not leave in direct sunlight, or close to heating equipment, or in a car with windows closed on a hot day. High temperatures may cause deformation of the devices and pose risk of fire.

Do not use the devices near an open flame. Sheets ejected from the printer (onto the top of the paper cassette) may fall into the flame, resulting in fire.

Do not use the devices close to TV sets or AM radios. Devices’ operation may adversely affect TV and radio reception.

Page 15

Proper Usage and Handling

 Usage Location

Do not use near strong magnets or near devices that produce strong electromagnetic fields. Electromagnetic radiation from devices such as TVs and game machines, and strong

magnetic fields from devices such as speakers and large motors, may cause distortion in printed images.

Use in a well-ventilated, level area.

Leave about 10 cm (4 in.) of clearance around the printer. Be sure to leave clearance

around the paper-handling slot (at the rear) so that paper has sufficient room to jut out from the slot during printing.

 Handling Precautions

Please avoid turning the printer’s power on and off needlessly as the printer initialization consumes ink: There may not be enough ink left for the allotted sheets in the

set.

When the printer is not in use, please remove the battery pack (CP-300 only).

Unplug the printer when you are not using it. But please note that you should plug in and

run the printer at least once every six months to ensure that it remains functional.

Before transporting the printer, remove the paper and ink cassettes and close the paper cassette cover and the ink cassette cover. If dirt or foreign objects enter the printer,

print quality may deteriorate.

Pack the printer into an appropriate case for transport. If a case is not available, wrap it with cloth or other protective material to protect against scratches.

Never use volatile compounds or insecticides on the printer, and do not allow rubber or vinyl material to remain in prolonged contact with the printer. These materials may

cause deformation of the printer’s casing.

 Overheating

If the printer overheats, it will temporarily stop operating. This does not mean that the printer has malfunctioned. The printer will resume normal printing as soon as it cools

down. Temporary stoppages are most likely to occur in the following cases:

• When printing continuously.

• If the room is unusually warm.

• If the air vents are blocked or if ventilation is inadequate.

 To Prevent Damage from Condensation

Condensation may form in the printer if you suddenly move it from a cold location to a warm location. To prevent damage that might be caused by condensation, place the printer

in a sealed vinyl bag prior to moving it, and allow it to reach room temperature before using it. Stop using the printer immediately if you detect condensation. Continued use may damage the equipment. Wait until the moisture evaporates completely before resuming use.

Page 16

 Cleaning the Printer

Never use benzene, paint thinner, or other volatile solvents to clean the printer. Volatile solvents may cause deformation or peeling of the printer’s casing. To clean the printer, wipe it with a soft dry cloth. If stronger cleaning is required, wipe first with a cloth moistened with a dilute neutral solvent, then wipe again with a soft dry cloth. If you use a chemical cleaning cloth, read the instructions that come with it and observe all indicated precautions.

Keep the air vents clean and free of dust. Clean the vents as necessary. Dust that enters the printer through the vents may land on the ink sheet, resulting in poor print quality and possibly leading to printer breakdown. If the ink sheet becomes dusty, remove the ink cassette and replace it with a new one.

 Proper Handling of Ink Cassettes

Please use only the ink cassettes specified for use by Canon.

Do not open the ink cassette cover while printing is in progress, and do not pull the ink cassette out. These actions may damage the printer.

Do not touch or pull on the ink sheet.

Do not handle the ink cassettes with wet or sweaty hands.

Allow ink cassettes to reach room temperature before installing and using them.

Condensation may form if you suddenly move ink cassettes from a cold location to a warm location. If there is risk of condensation, leave the cassette in its packaging until it reaches room temperature, and wipe away any moisture before loading it.

If you are not planning to use the printer for a while, remove and store the ink cassette.

 Proper Handling of Paper Cassettes

Do not apply excessive force to the paper cassette. Force or impact on the cassette may result in paper jams or equipment damage.

Do not bend or deform the spring located at the rear of the middle cover of the paper cassette.

Spring

Do not place any foreign objects in the print output receptacle (on the top of the paper cassette). This area is for paper only.

If you are not planning to use the printer for a while, remove the paper cassette, close the paper cassette’s top cover and store the paper cassette. Also remove the paper from the paper cassette and store it horizontally.

Page 17

 Proper Handling of Paper

Please use only the paper types specified for use by Canon.

Paper must be printed on the glossy side (the side without any printed markings).

Always load paper into the cassette with the glossy side up. Loading the paper the wrong way may result in poor print quality, and in some cases may cause damage to the printer.

Do not tear or bend the paper’s perforated edges before printing. Tearing the paper’s perforated edges will cause the ink sheet to wind up automatically and waste one print’s worth of ink. If this happens, there will not be enough ink left to print all the paper sheets included in the kit.

Do not use label sheets on which labels are partially peeled off.

Do not touch the print side of the paper with your fingers. Always hold the paper along

the edges (outside the perforated border).

Be sure that hands are dry before touching the paper, and do not scratch on the paper surface with a hard object. Keep the paper surface away from dust, water droplets, etc.

Do not write on the paper before printing. Writing on paper before printing on it may result in malfunction.

Do not touch paper while it is being printed. During printing, the sheet repeatedly moves back and forth along the top of the paper cassette and in and out through the paper-handling slot. Please do not touch the sheet during this process.

Do not allow too many prints to accumulate in the print output receptacle. Do not allow more than 9 sheets to accumulate in the print output receptacle.

You may write on the back of the paper with an oil-based pen, but to avoid smudging please allow ink time to dry before touching it.

Allow the paper to reach room temperature before installing and using it. Condensation

may form if you suddenly move the paper from a cold location to a warm location. If there is risk of condensation, leave the paper in its packaging until it reaches room temperature, and wipe away any moisture before loading it.

Please avoid the following actions as they may result in color change, color fading or color bleeding.

• Sticking any type of adhesive tape onto the print surface.

• Allowing print surfaces to come into contact with vinyl materials.

• Applying alcohol or other volatile solvents to the print surface.

• Leaving print surfaces tightly pressed against any other surfaces or objects for prolonged periods.

Page 18

 Paper Storage

If you wish to mount prints into an album, select an album with nylon-based sleeves, or with propylene or cellophane sleeves. Other types of sleeves may cause color loss or

color bleeding.

Color change may occur over time in accordance with conditions of storage. Canon assumes no liability for color changes.

To avoid print quality deterioration, do not store your prints in the following types of locations.

• Locations that reach temperatures above 40

• Humid or dusty locations

• Locations exposed to direct sunlight.

Remove unused paper from the paper cassette, return it to its original package, and store the package horizontally.

C (104oF)

 Others

When opening a color ink/paper set (full-sized label set, label set), check the contents. If something seems to be missing or appears to be damaged, contact the dealer for assistance.

The battery pack can be charged while installed on the printer (CP-300 only), using the printer.

• Charge the battery pack using the compact power adapter supplied with the printer.

• The battery pack can also be charged using the separately sold the Battery/Charge Adapter Kit.

When using the battery pack (Included with the CP-300 in some regions or sold separately), if the battery status is low, the finished print may not be ejected into the print output receptacle completely. If this happens, please pull out the paper.

• If the ON/OFF button is pressed and the printer’s power turns on while charging the battery pack, charging will stop. Pressing the ON/OFF button again will turn off the printer and charging will resume.

• Do not charge this battery pack with charge adapters other than those recommended by Canon.

• Do not use the battery pack in products other than those recommended by Canon.

• Do not charge battery packs other than the battery pack NB-CP1L.

• Do not carry or store the battery pack with metal objects with sharp edges, such as paper clips and pins. Always put the terminal cover on the battery pack’s terminal when carrying it or before storing it.

• Avoid dropping or subjecting the battery pack to severe impact.

• Do not apply heat or expose the battery pack to open flame.

• Do not cover the compact power adapter with anything, such as a tablecloth, cushion or blanket, when it is charging. Heat will build up internally and possibly lead to fire.

• Immediately flush water over parts of the body or clothing that come into contact with the inner contents of a battery if the outer casing incurs damage. If any of these substances should contact internal tissues, such as eyes or the mouth, immediately flush with water and seek medical assistance.

Compact Power Adapter Cable

Connect the compact power adapter cable to the charge adapter.

• The charge indicator lights orange while charging and turns green once the battery pack is fully charged.

• Disconnect the cable from the charge adapter once charging is complete and detach the battery pack from the charge adapter.

Page 33

• When the battery pack is used to power the printer, the printer will automatically turn off if it is idle for 5 minutes or more.

• This is a lithium ion battery pack so there is no need to completely use or discharge it before recharging. It can be charged at any charge state.

• It takes approximately 150 minutes to bring a fully discharged battery pack to a full charge state (based on standard Canon testing criteria).

• Charge it within a temperature range of 5 to 40

C (41 to 104oF).

• The charge adapter may emit noises while charging. This is not a malfunction.

• Do not charge the battery pack for more than 24 continuous hours to avoid performance loss.

• When the printer is not in use, remove the battery pack, replace its terminal cover and store it in a cool place (30

C/86oF or less).Charge it before using it again.

• Even charged battery packs continue to discharge naturally. You are advised to charge the battery on the day of use, or one day before, to ensure a full charge.

• Since storing a fully charged battery pack for long periods of time (about 1 year) can shorten its lifecycle or affect performance, you are recommended to discharge the battery pack fully in the printer before storing it in a cool place (30

C/86oF or less). If you do not use the battery pack for long periods of time, charge it fully and discharge it fully in the printer at least once a year before returning it to storage.

• The printer consumes the battery charge when the power is on even when a function is not being used. To conserve the battery charge, be particularly attentive in turning the power off.

• Although the battery pack’s maximum operating range is 5 to 40 the optimal range is 10 to 30

C (50 to 86oF). At cold temperatures, such as those

C (41 to 104oF),

experienced on ski hills, performance will temporarily decline, reducing the usable time.

• If the usable time of a battery pack diminishes substantially even when fully charged, it should be replaced.

• Remove the battery pack when the printer is not in use. The battery pack continues to discharge a small amount when left in the printer or charge adapter even with the power turned off. This shortens the battery life.

 Battery Status

If battery status is running down while the printer is connected to the camera, the camera’s LCD monitor may display the following message.

Error Message Solution

Recharge the printer battery The battery pack’s power is too low to operate the

printer. Switch the battery pack for a fully charged one or recharge the battery pack.

Printing with Non-Canon Digital Cameras

Since the CP-300/CP-200 printers support the PictBridge* standard, you can connect PictBridge compliant non-Canon digital cameras to easily print high image quality photos.

* PictBridge: PictBridge is an industry standard for direct printing that allows you to print

images without using a computer by directly connecting a digital camera or digital camcorder (hereafter “camera”) to a printer, regardless of their brands and models.

 Before Using the Printer

Please read carefully the user guide that came with your camera and make sure that:

• The camera is PictBridge compliant.

• You are using the USB cable for the camera/computer connection to connect the printer to the camera. (This cable may be included with the camera)

• You set the print settings with the camera. For details, refer to the camera’s user guide.

 Connecting the Camera

Insert one end of the USB cable used for the camera/computer connection in the printer’s direct print port (see p. 26) and insert the other end in the camera’s terminal. (For details, refer to the camera’s user guide)

• The printer’s indicator blinks green several times once the printer and camera are correctly connected. The indicator lights steadily green once it is ready to print.

• If a problem occurs during a connection or during printing, the printer’s indicator lights or blinks red. If this happens, the error message that appears on the camera’s LCD monitor may differ according to your camera model.

 Printing Functions

When printing with non-Canon cameras, the following items differ from Canoncamera printing operations.

 Functions Available with Non-Canon Cameras

• Printing different selected images on an 8-label sheet.* * You can use this function if it is supported by your camera.

 Functions Not Available with Non-Canon Cameras

• Printing images showing the date.

• Printing images with DPOF print settings.

• Printing indexes with the file name.

• Printing speed may differ according to your camera model and the image’s number of recorded pixels. (The value written on page 38 is a printing speed obtained when printing with a Canon camera.)
