Precautions

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, turn off the power and do not use the printer for at least one hour.

On transport

When you transport the printer, remove the print cartridge, paper tray, the “Memory Stick” from the printer and put the printer and its peripherals in the original box with the protective packaging.

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.

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.

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.

• 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.

About the “Memory Stick”

What is “Memory Stick”?

“Memory Stick” is small, light-weighted, and next-generation IC storage media with a larger capacity than a floppy disc. You can use the “Memory Stick” to exchange data among “Memory Stick” compatible devices. In addition, you can use the “Memory Stick” as a removable external storage device to save your data.

Types of “Memory Stick”

Following types of “Memory Stick” are available for versatile purposes.

• “Memory Stick”: “Memory Stick” can store all types of data except for the one that requires the “MagicGate” copyright protection technology.

• “Memory Stick (with memory select function)”: “Memory Stick (with memory select function)” incorporates multiple 128MB memory units, which can be selected by a user via a mechanical switch on the reverse side of the media. Each memory unit can be used to categorize various types of data. You cannot select multiple memory units together or continuously.

• “MagicGate Memory Stick” : “MagicGate Memory Stick ” employs the “MagicGate” copyright protection technology.

• “Memory Stick PRO” : “Memory Stick PRO” employs the “MagicGate” copyright protection technology and can be used only with “Memory Stick PRO” compliant devices.

• “Memory Stick-ROM”: “Memory Stick-ROM” is the read-only “Memory Stick” storing the data. You cannot save or delete its data.

On “Memory Stick Duo”

“Memory Stick Duo” is smaller than the standard-sized “Memory Stick”. When inserted into the Memory Stick Duo adaptor, the “Memory Stick Duo” is the same size as the standard-sized “Memory Stick”, and can be used with “Memory Stick” compliant devices.

• When using the “Memory Stick Duo” on the printer, make sure to insert the “Memory Stick Duo” into the Memory Stick Duo adaptor and then insert the adaptor containing the “Memory Stick Duo” into the printer.

• Before using the “Memory Stick Duo”, check the correct direction to insert the “Memory Stick Duo”. If you attempt to insert it in a wrong direction, the “Memory Stick Duo” and the printer may be damaged.

• Never insert the Memory Stick Duo adaptor that contains no “Memory Stick Duo” into a “Memory Stick”compatible device. If you do, the device may be damaged.

Troubleshooting

If you run into any problems using the printer, use the following guidelines to solve the problem. If the problem persists, consult your Sony dealer.

When you are printing from your computer, also refer to the computer manual.

Cannot operate the printer after the power switch is turned on.

m Connect the AC power cord to an

AC outlet securely.

The television displays no images.

m Press INPUT SELECT to turn on the

“MEMORY STICK” input indicator.

m When printing from the “Memory

Stick,” insert it securely into the printer. Check that images recorded by a digital still camera or other device are recorded.

Cannot print.

m Insert the correct set of print

cartridge and print paper.

m Check that the paper tray has paper. m The thermal head may be

overheated. Leave the printer until the head cools down and the printer resumes printing.

m Remove the jammed paper, if any.

An image in thumbnail list is not properly displayed or printed.

m If the image is displayed but can not

be printed, the file used for printing is damaged.

m If the mark shown on

the right is displayed in the thumbnail list, the image is a JPEG file created with your computer, or the thumbnail data of the image is damaged.

Select the mark and press PICTURE. If a preview image is displayed, you can print the image. If the same mark is displayed again as a preview, the image is stored in an incompatible file format that the DPP-EX5 does not support or the image itself is damaged.

m An image which is damaged or has

some kind of problem will not appear in the image list. A file error message appears. If there are no images stored in the “Memory Stick”, the no file message appears.

m If an image is not compatible with

DCF (Design rule for Camera File system), it may not be printed with the printer even if it is displayed on the PC monitor.

m The printer can handle and display

up to 9999 image files. If there are more than 9999 images stored in a “Memory Stick,” use the computer to display and handle the remaining images.

m Depending on the type of digital

still camera used, the aspect ratio of the recorded image differs, so the image may not be printed covering the entire printable area.

m Depending on the type of digital

still camera used, preview images may be displayed along with the primary images in the thumbnail list. The printed quality of the preview images will not be as good as the primary images. Note that if you delete the preview images, the data for the primary images may be damaged.

m Depending on the type of digital

still camera used, the image may be stretched vertically if it has been rotated or processed using your digital still camera. This is not because of trouble with the printer, but because the image was rewritten with your digital still camera.

m When you name or rename an

image file on your computer and its file name includes characters other than alphanumeric characters, the file name may not be displayed correctly or the image may not be displayed (read error) on the printer.

The beeps sound.

m Check that you are following the

correct procedures.

Cannot remove the print cartridge.

m Turn the printer off then on. After

the motor sound stops, try to remove the cartridge.

If this does not solve the problem, contact Sony service facilities or your Sony dealer.

The

Take out the paper tray to remove the jammed paper.

Cleaning the inside of the printer

If white lines or dots are printed on the pictures, use the supplied cleaning cartridge and paper to clean inside the printer.

Notes

•Make cleaning only when there are white lines or dots on the print.

•When you can obtain proper printing performances, cleaning will not improve the printed picture quality.

•With the supplied cleaning kit, you can make cleaning for the maximum of about 20 times. As the number of cleaning times increases, the cleaning paper loses its cleaning effect.

•Do not place the cleaning paper on the print paper, which may cause paper jam or other troubles.

•If a cleaning does not improve printed picture quality, please make cleaning a couple of times.

•You can also make cleaning with the protective sheet contained in the printing pack designed for the DPP-EX5. To use the protective sheet for cleaning, insert the paper with its imprint surface facing down into the tray.

1 Open the cartridge compartment lid and remove the print

cartridge (page 17).

2 Insert the supplied

cleaning cartridge (white) into the printer and close the cartridge compartment lid.

3 Remove the paper tray from the printer. If there is print paper

in the tray, remove the print paper from the tray.

4 Remove the 3.5 x 5 inch

paper adaptor and stand the partition up. Place the supplied cleaning paper with the no-imprint side facing up and the arrow pointing in the same direction as the arrow in the tray. Insert the paper behind the partition.

Glossary

Auto Fine Print 2

The function automatically corrects the picture quality so that an image may be printed in more vivid, clear and beautiful pictures. It is especially effective for a darker image with low contrast. The pictures are corrected to reproduce natural skin colors, vivid tree leaf green, or clear sky blue.

DCF (Design rule for Camera File system)

The standard specified by JEIDA (Japan Electronic Industry Development Association) to maintain the file exchangeability and compatibilities between digital still cameras and related products.

DPOF (Digital Print Order Format)

The format used to record the information necessary for automatically printing images shot by a digital still 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.

Exif 2.2 (Exif Print)

Exif (Exchangeable image file format for digital still cameras) Print is a global standard for digital photo printing. A digital still 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 When the “Auto Fine Print 2” is

enabled and an image (JPEG file) is shot by an Exif Print (Exif 2.2)compatible digital still camera, the image is automatically adjusted to its optimum picture quality and printed.

“Memory Stick”

A next-generation, compact, light, removable storage media used with a digital still camera, video camera, or PC. In its compact body, it can record a larger volume of data than a floppy disc can. You can use it to exchange data among “Memory Stick” ready devices and also use it as removable and external storage medium.

Thumbnails

Miniature images for representing the original images that are stored in the image files taken by a digital still camera. The printer uses thumbnails in the image list.

Caractéristiques

A l’aide de l’imprimante photo numérique DPP-EX5, vous pouvez imprimer des images provenant d’un “Memory Stick” ou d’un ordinateur.

Impression de qualité photographique

Grâce à son système d’impression de teinte par sublimation, l’imprimante peut réaliser des impressions de qualité photographique en satisfaisant à un certain nombre d’exigences.

Fonction Super Coat 2 (page 49)

La fonction Super Coat 2 garantit une durabilité élevée ainsi qu’une résistance à l’humidité ou aux traces de doigts, en préservant la qualité de vos impressions pendant très longtemps.

Fonction Auto Fine Print 2

Cette fonction analyse les informations contenues dans une image et les corrige pour produire une image éclatante, claire et naturelle.

(impression fine automatique) (page 49)

Compatibilité Exif 2.2* (Exif Print) (page 49)

L’imprimante prend en charge la technologie Exif 2.2. Si la fonction Auto Fine Print 2 est active, l’imprimante ajuste automatiquement une image sauvegardée par un appareil photo numérique compatible avec la norme Exif Print, puis l’imprime avec une qualité d’image optimale (pour les fichiers JPEG uniquement).

Sélection des formats d’impression et des impressions avec/sans marge (page 49)

Vous avez le choix entre un grand format carte postale dynamique (10 x 15 cm), un format 3,5 x 5 pouces (9 x 13 cm) ou un petit format économique (9 x 10 cm).

* L’impression Exif (format de fichier image échangeable pour les appareils photo

numériques) est une norme mondiale dans le domaine du tirage de photos numériques. Un appareil photo numérique prenant en charge le système Exif Print mémorise les données correspondantes aux conditions de prises de vue de chaque cliché. L’imprimante utilise les données Exif Print mémorisées dans chaque fichier image afin de garantir que le résultat de l’impression correspond aussi fidèlement

que possible au cliché original.

Magasin à papier permettant l’impression par lot de 25/30 feuilles (page 19)

Le magasin à papier fourni vous permet d’imprimer jusqu’à 25 feuilles de papier au format carte postale (10 x 15 cm) et 30 feuilles de papier au format 3,5 x 5 pouces (9 x 13 cm) et au format économique (9 x 10 cm) en une seule fois.

Une grande variété de traitements de l’image et de réglages sans utiliser d’ordinateur (page 27)

Une grande variété de fonctions de traitement de l’image vous permet d’agrandir ou de réduire l’image, de la faire pivoter ou de la déplacer. Vous pouvez également saisir et superposer des caractères sur une image ou ajouter un effet spécial pour imprimer des photos en sépia, monochrome ou en mode peinture. Vous pouvez régler la luminosité, la teinte et d’autres éléments de la qualité de l’image.

Remarques

• Ne réutilisez pas une cartouche d’encre pour l’impression après en avoir rembobiné le ruban encreur. Un tel procédé ne donnera pas une impression correcte ; de plus, il risque de provoquer une panne de l’imprimante.

•Utilisez uniquement le kit d’impression conçu pour cette imprimante.

•Utilisez toujours la cartouche d’impression conçue pour le format de papier que vous utilisez. Si vous utilisez une cartouche d’un kit avec un papier d’un autre kit, l’impression risque de ne pas être possible ou des bourrages papier ou d’autres dysfonctionnements risquent de se produire.

•N’imprimez pas sur un papier d’impression déjà utilisé. Imprimer deux fois une image sur le même papier ne produit pas un résultat plus marqué. En outre, ceci risque de provoquer un mauvais fonctionnement ou une panne de l’imprimante.

•Ne touchez pas le ruban encreur de la cartouche ou la surface d’impression du papier. S’il y a des traces de doigts ou de la poussière sur la surface d’impression ou sur le ruban encreur, la qualité d’impression sera médiocre.

•Pour obtenir des impressions de qualité, évitez de ranger le kit d’impression dans un endroit soumis à des températures ou à une humidité élevées, à une poussière excessive ou aux rayons du soleil.

•Si vous devez stocker une cartouche et du papier d’impression partiellement utilisés, stockez-les dans leur emballage d’origine ou dans un emballage similaire.
