Getting Started

COPY
Preparations for printing images. A Postcard size Color Ink Cassette/Paper Set (sold separately) (p. 2) will be used as an example, however Color Ink Cassette/Paper Sets other than Postcard size may also be used in the same way to prepare for printing.
Preparing the Ink Cassette
Check the ink cassette.
Check that the paper size and the size shown on the color
ink cassette (Card size, Postcard size etc.) match. Check that the ink sheet is taut with no slack. If the ink
sheet is slack, push and turn the sprocket as shown in the
illustration.
If you overwind the ink sheet, it may not be possible to
use all the paper for printing and the ink sheet may tear.
Ink sheet
Do not touch or pull on the ink sheet. Do not touch the ink cassette with wet or sweaty hands. You may not be able to print if the ink sheet is damaged, dirty or wet.
Preparing the Paper Cassette
Check the paper size.

Check that the prepared ink cassette and the size shown
on the paper cassette (Card size, Postcard size, etc.)
match.

Open the lid.
There are two steps to open the lid. Open the outer lid ()
rst, then open the inner lid ().

COPY
Shiny side
Set the paper.
Set the paper into the paper cassette that you prepared.
You can place up to 18 sheets in the paper cassette.
Inserting 19 or more sheets may damage the printer or
cause malfunction.
Hold the paper as shown in the illustration, with the shiny
side facing up and put it into the paper cassette. Do not
touch the print side (shiny side) of the paper with your ngers. This may prevent you from making clean prints. If a protective sheet is included with the paper, remove it
and
set the paper only into the cassette.
When making Postcard size prints that have a section
for pasting a stamp, insert the paper so that the stamp
section is facing the direction shown in the illustration.
4
Use only dedicated paper for use in SELPHY CP series printers included in the genuine Canon brand Color Ink Cassette/Paper Sets. Regular printing paper, regular postcards, or dedicated paper for SELPHY ES series printers cannot be used.
Never do the following, as it may result in failure or cause the printer to malfunction:
reverse the paper (the shiny side is the print side)
-
bend or separate the paper at the perforations before printing
-
use label sheets that have begun to peel or label sheets with portions peeled back
-
write on a sheet before printing
­ on already printed paper
print
-
reuse a spent ink cassette
-
Do not touch the springs of the paper cassette.
If the springs are bent or deformed, paper will not feed correctly into SELPHY.
Do not touch or scratch the print surface (shiny side), or touch the paper with wet hands. If the print surface becomes dirty or wet, you will not be able to make clean prints.
Close the inner lid until it clicks into place.
Leave the outer lid open during printing.
Close the lid.
