Welcome!
PictureMate ShowTM is your easy-to-use, personal photo lab that’s also a digital photo frame. Just insert a digital camera memory card and you’re ready to view your pictures in a variety of entertaining slideshows or print brilliant, long-lasting photos. Because PictureMate whenever and wherever you take pictures. Plus, your PictureMate prints will be as brilliant and vibrant generations from now as they are today.
®
is light and portable, you can print
A Quick Introduction to Digital Photography
With film cameras, the process was simple; buy film, take pictures, leave the film at the photo lab, and come back later for your photos and negatives. Since you had negatives, you could take them back later if you wanted reprints.
The digital process is simple too, and it gives you complete control. Just follow the basic steps shown on the right.
2
1. Review and Delete
After you finish taking your photos, review them on your digital camera’s screen. Delete the photos you don’t want.
2. Print
As you view the photos with your family and friends, click the remote control to choose photos and print.
3. Save
To preserve your digital photo files (just like film negatives), save them in PictureMate (or on a thumb drive or your computer) after you print. Then you can reprint them any time.
4. Clear the Memory Card
After you save your photos, use your camera to delete them from your card to make room for more photos.
Special Features
Printing with your PictureMate becomes even easier with these special features:
From PictureMate’s screen, you can view your photos and press the Print button on the remote control to print the ones you want. Or you can select to print all photos. (See page 10.)
You can select from 12 entertaining slideshows including clock and calendar functions. You can even edit and print your photos on the spot. (See page 13.)
You can crop photos right from PictureMate—no computer required. (See page 16.)
If your camera supports DPOF (Digital Print Order Format), you can select which photos to print while the memory card is still in your camera. When you insert the card into PictureMate, you just have to select Yes and press OK. (See page 14.)
®
If you have a PictBridge
-enabled camera, you can connect the camera to PictureMate and control printing right from your camera. (See page 24.)
®
If you have a Bluetooth
-enabled mobile device or computer, you can send photos wirelessly to PictureMate for printing using the optional Bluetooth Photo Print Adapter. (See page 26.)

Storing and Displaying Your PictureMate Photos
Photos printed on PictureMate photo paper are beautiful and long-lasting. Follow these guidelines to make sure they will look great for generations.
Caring for Your Photos
To avoid scratches or smudging, do not rub the
printed side of the photo.
To prevent smudging, avoid stacking your photos
until they are completely dry.
Let photos sit for 24 hours before framing.
After you print, the colors on your photos will take
some time to set as the ink dries. During this time, the colors may look different than you expect.
Displaying Your Photos
To ensure photos will last as long as possible,
display them under glass or in photo albums.
Keep photos out of the sun to help prevent fading.
Storing Unused Paper
Return unused paper to the original package. Store paper flat to prevent curling, and keep it away from extreme temperatures, high humidity, and bright light.

Use only the power-supply cord that comes with this product. Use of another cord may result in fire or electrical shock, or injury.
The AC adapter model A431H is designed for use with the printer with which it was included. Do not attempt to use it with other electronic devices unless specified.
Use only the type of power source indicated on the AC adapter’s label, and always supply power directly from a standard domestic electrical outlet with the AC power cord that meets the relevant local safety standards.
Avoid using outlets on the same circuit as photocopiers or air control systems that regularly switch on and off.
Avoid using electrical outlets controlled by wall switches or automatic timers.
Keep the entire computer system away from potential sources of electromagnetic interference, such as loudspeakers or the base units of cordless telephones.
Do not use a damaged or frayed power cord, or the AC adapter or optional battery if damaged.
If you use an extension cord with the printer, make sure that the total ampere rating of the devices plugged into the extension cord does not exceed the cord’s ampere rating. Also, make sure that the total ampere rating of all devices plugged into the wall outlet does not exceed the wall outlet’s ampere rating.
Never disassemble, modify, or attempt to repair the AC adapter, power cord, printer, and options by yourself except as specifically explained in the printer’s guides. Doing so may result in injury, electric shock, or fire.
Unplug the printer and the AC adapter, remove the optional battery from the printer, and refer servicing to qualified service personnel under the following conditions:
The power cord or plug is damaged; liquid has entered the printer; the printer, the AC adapter, or the optional battery has been dropped or the casing damaged; the printer, the AC adapter, or the optional battery does not operate normally or exhibits a distinct change in performance. (Do not adjust controls that are not covered by the operating instructions.)
Do not use with wet hands.

WARNING: The cords included with this product contain chemicals, including lead, known to the State of California to cause birth defects or other reproductive harm. Wash hands
after handling. (This notice is provided in accordance with Proposition 65 in Cal. Health & Safety Code §25249.5 and following.)
Photo Cartridge Safety Instructions
Keep photo cartridges out of the reach of children and do not drink the ink.
Do not shake the photo cartridge after removing it from the bag; this can cause leakage.
Be careful when you handle used photo cartridges, as there may be some ink remaining around the ink supply ports. If ink gets onto your skin, wash the area thoroughly with soap and water. If ink gets into your eyes, flush them immediately with water. If discomfort or vision problems continue after a thorough flushing, see a doctor immediately.
Do not remove or tear the label on the cartridge; this can cause leakage.
Do not dismantle photo cartridges or try to refill them. This could damage the print head.
Install the photo cartridge immediately after you remove it from its package. If you leave a cartridge unpacked for a long time before using it, normal printing may not be possible.
Do not use a photo cartridge beyond the date printed on the cartridge carton; otherwise, it may result in reduced print quality. For best results, use up the photo cartridge within six months of installing it.
After bringing a photo cartridge inside from a cold storage site, allow it to warm up at room temperature for at least three hours before using it.
Store photo cartridges in a cool, dark place.
Store each photo cartridge so that the bottom of its
packaging faces down.
Do not touch the green IC chip on the side of the cartridge. Doing so may prevent normal operation and printing.
The IC chip on the photo cartridge retains a variety of cartridge-related information, such as the amount of ink remaining, so that the cartridge may be removed and reinstalled freely. However, each time the cartridge is inserted, some ink is consumed because the printer automatically performs a reliability check.
If you remove the photo cartridge for later use, protect the ink supply ports from dirt and dust and store it in the same environment as the printer. A valve in the ink supply ports makes covers or plugs unnecessary, but the ink may stain items that come into contact with this area of the cartridge. Do not touch the ink supply ports or the surrounding area.
57
Screen Safety Instructions
The screen contains a few small bright or dark spots. These are normal and do not mean that the screen is damaged in any way.
Only use a dry, soft cloth to clean the screen. Do not use liquid or chemical cleansers.
If the screen is damaged, contact your dealer. If the liquid crystal solution gets on your hands, wash them thoroughly with soap and water. If the liquid crystal solution gets into your eyes, flush them immediately with water. If discomfort or vision problems remain after a thorough flushing, see a doctor immediately.
Please consult your state and local regulations regarding disposal or recycling. Do not put in the trash.
Remote Control Battery Safety Instructions
If battery acid gets into your eyes or on your skin, immediately rinse the affected area thoroughly with water and seek medical treatment. If a battery is swallowed, seek medical treatment immediately.
Use only a CR2025 lithium button battery for the remote control according to the directions in the user documentation.
Do not handle the battery with wet hands or use it near water.
Do not expose the battery to water or high humidity.
Do not drop, puncture, disassemble, mutilate, or short-
circuit the battery.
Do not place the battery near or into fire or water.
Do not use a battery that is leaking or damaged in any way.
Do not charge the battery.
Keep the battery away from heat sources.
Do not leave the battery in a vehicle to prevent the battery
from overheating.
Prevent the battery from coming into contact with metal objects that could short-circuit it, such as coins or keys.
Do not solder wires or terminals directly to the battery.
Keep the battery away from open flame if it leaks or smells
strange.
If overheating, discoloration, or deformation occur, remove the battery from this product and do not use it.
When not using the printer for a long period of time, remove the battery from the remote control and store it separately to avoid over-discharging the battery.
Do not store the battery where the temperature or humidity is very high.
Store the battery out of children’s reach.
Warning: Do not dispose of batteries as ordinary refuse. Instead, dispose of them in a collection or recycle box in accordance with local laws. Do not incinerate or dispose of the battery in fire.
For users in the United States and Canada: This mark indicates that the battery will be recycled by RBRC. When you dispose of the battery, contact RBRC.

Exchange products and parts assume the remaining warranty period of your original product covered by this limited warranty.
What This Warranty Does Not Cover: This warranty does not apply to refurbished or reconditioned products. This warranty covers only normal use in the United States and Canada. Using this product for continuous production or similar high duty purposes is not considered normal use; damage, maintenance or service from such use will not be covered under this warranty. This warranty is not transferable. This warranty does not cover any color change or fading of prints or reimbursement of materials or services required for reprinting.

THE WARRANTY AND REMEDY PROVIDED ABOVE ARE EXCLUSIVE AND IN LIEU OF ALL OTHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED WARRANTIES INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, NON­INFRINGEMENT OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.

How Many Photos Will I Get From a PictureMate Print Pack?
Epson has packaged the PictureMate Photo Cartridge with a quantity of 4 × 6 PictureMate Photo Paper, so that purchasing supplies for PictureMate is convenient and affordable. The number of sheets of photo paper in your PictureMate Print Pack is stated on the Print Pack’s box. The photo ink cartridge in the Print Pack contains enough ink to allow borderless, color printing of about the stated number of sheets.
Our estimate of the number of photos you can print with a PictureMate Print Pack is based on test printing with a range of 20 different color photos. Actual yields will vary based on images printed, print settings, paper type, frequency of use and temperature. For example, printing many copies of the same photo, or printing many black and white or sepia photos, may result in fewer photos per PictureMate Photo Cartridge. Also, the PictureMate Photo Cartridge once installed should be replaced with a new one within 6
60
months. For print quality, a variable amount of ink remains in the cartridge after the “Replace Print Pack” indicator comes on.
You may be able to print more photos with a PictureMate Photo Cartridge than the number of sheets of photo paper in your PictureMate Print Pack. In this case the cartridge monitor indicates the cartridge can still be used. You can continue printing with paper from another PictureMate Print Pack or Epson Premium Photo Paper Glossy in the 4 × 6 borderless size which is available from many resellers or Epsonstore.com. There are other photo papers available but most are not formulated to be fully compatible with the PictureMate Photo Cartridge. Using other papers may result in poor color reproduction, print quality problems or more fading.
Both a PictureMate Photo Cartridge and some PictureMate Photo Paper were included in the box with your PictureMate printer. The included cartridge contains enough ink to allow borderless, color printing of about the number of included paper sheets. The other comments above also apply to the cartridge and paper included in the printer box.
PictureMate Print Pack Satisfaction Guarantee
If you are dissatisfied because you receive fewer prints than the number of sheets of paper stated on your PictureMate Print Pack, you can return the remaining sheets of paper with the dated sales receipt and UPC code from the PictureMate Print Pack packaging within one year of purchase and Epson will give you a pro-rated refund for the number of sheets returned, plus a maximum of $1.10 for postage. The amount of the refund depends on the number of sheets stated on
your Print Pack and the Print Pack’s suggested retail price. For example, if you purchased a 150-sheet Print Pack of glossy photo paper with a suggested retail price of $39.99, Epson will refund 27 cents per sheet returned ($39.99 divided by 150 sheets equals 27 cents per sheet). This Satisfaction Guarantee is a prorated refund that covers only end-user claims in the U.S. and Canada. It does not cover use of any non-Epson ink or paper, commercial use of the printer, or paper consumed by proofs or printing errors.
This Satisfaction Guarantee also applies to the PictureMate Photo Cartridge and PictureMate Photo Paper which were included in the box with your PictureMate printer, if you are dissatisfied because you receive fewer prints with the cartridge than the number of sheets included. The per-sheet refund in that case is 27 cents.
