Notes on LCD screen

• The displayed image on the screen is not identical in picture quality and colors with the printed image because display 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.

• Images may trail across the LCD screen in a cold location. This is not a malfunction.

Notes

• Do not touch the ink ribbon or store the ink ribbon in a dusty location. 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 results will not be obtained, or a malfunction may occur. 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, keep pressing the core of the ribbon and wind the ink ribbon in the direction of the arrow to remove the slack.

Do not wind the ribbon in the directions shown here

• Do not disassemble the ink ribbon.

• Do not pull out the ribbon from the ink ribbon.

• Do not remove the ink ribbon while printing.

• Avoid placing the ink ribbon in a location subject to high temperatures, high humidity, excessive dust or direct sunlight. Please store it in a cool and dark place and use it within a short period from the date of production. Depending on the storage conditions, the ink ribbon may deteriorate. Use of such an ink ribbon may affect the printed results, for which we cannot guarantee or compensate.

Inserting the print paper

paper.

– When adding print paper to the paper tray, be

sure that the total number of print paper sheets does not exceed 20 sheets.

– Do not insert different types of print paper

together into the paper tray.

– Do not print on used print paper. Printing an

image twice on the same paper will not make the printed image thicker.

– Use the print paper for this printer only.

– Do not use print paper ejected without printing.

Notes on storing the print paper

• To store print paper in the tray, remove the paper tray from the printer and close the slide door of the paper tray.

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.

c If a thumbnail image is not displayed

properly, it is a small image. The printing quality is rough due to this small image size.

c An enlarged image, depending on its

image size, will be printed with deteriorated picture quality.

c When you shoot an image in the RAW file

format, a highly-compressed JPEG file may be also recorded. As the printer does not support the RAW file format, it may use the JPEG file to print an image. A RAW file can be printed from a PC. For details, see the operating instructions of the digital camera you are using.

What is a RAW file?

A RAW file is an original image file format to save uncompressed, unprocessed still image data captured from a digital camera.

Precautions

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.

• 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 installation

• Avoid placing the printer in a location subject to: – vibration –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 the AC adaptor

• 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 for other devices.

• In case the cord of the AC adaptor is damaged, do not use it any longer, as this may be dangerous.

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.

On transport

When you transport the printer, remove the ink ribbon, paper tray, AC adaptor, the memory card, or a USB memory 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.

Page 61

On restrictions on duplication

When 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 programs, films, video tapes, portraits of other people or other materials may be copyrighted. Unauthorized video printing of such materials may infringe the provisions of the copyright law.
