3 Preparing the printing pack
You need an optional printing pack designed for the printer. The pack contains a set of print paper and a print cartridge for either Post Card size (4x6 inch) or Small size (3.5x4 inch) prints.
Select the printing pack according to the type of printing you intend to do:
Printing pack Contents
SVM-25LS 25 sheets of Post Card size photo paper/Print cartridge for
25 prints
SVM-25LW 25 sheets of Post Card size sticker/Print cartridge for 25
prints
SVM-30SS 30 sheets of Small size photo paper/Print cartridge for 30
prints
SVM-30SW 30 sheets of Small size stickers/Print cartridge for 30 prints
SVM-30SW09 30 sheets of Small size 9-split stickers/Print cartridge for 30
prints
Notes
•Use the printing pack for this printer only.
•Always use the print cartridge designed for the size of the print paper you use. If you mix cartridges and paper of different types or size, printing may not be possible, or a paper jam or other trouble may occur.
•Do not rewind the ink ribbon and use the rewound print cartridge for printing. Otherwise, proper printing result will not be obtained, or even a breakdown may occur.
•Do not print on the used print paper. Printing an image twice on the same paper will not make the printed image thicker. This may even cause a malfunction or breakdown.
•Do not touch the ink ribbon of the print cartridge or the printing surface of the print paper. If there are fingerprints or dust on the printing surface or the ink ribbon, the printing quality may deteriorate.
•For high quality prints, avoid placing the printing pack in locations that are subject to high temperature, high humidity, excessive dust, or direct sunlight.
•When storing a partially-used pack of the print cartridge and print paper, store it in its original bag or in a similar container.
