Preparations
Preparing the print pack
Size of print paper
The size of the post card size print paper is
as follows:
• Post card (4 × 6 inch/10 × 15 cm) size
(101.6 × 152.4 mm)
(the maximum borderless printing size)
Optional print packs
You can use the following optional print
packs for the printer:
Post card size print pack
SVM-F40P
• 40 sheets of 4 × 6 inch print paper (20-
sheet-pack × 2)
• Ink ribbon for 40 prints
SVM-F120P
• 120 sheets of 4 × 6 inch print paper (20-
sheet-pack × 6)
• 3 ink ribbons each for 40 prints
PNotes on number of sheets
• With an ink ribbon, you can print the total of 40
sheets of the print paper, 2 packs of 20-sheet
print paper.
• When you feed the print paper, please make sure
that the total number of sheets in the paper tray
does not exceed 20. When 2 packs of 20-sheet
print paper run out, the ink ribbon should also
run out.
To the paper tray
PNote
Not all models are available in all countries
or regions.
PNotes on using print packs
• Always use the print pack designed for this
printer only. If you use different types of
print pack, printing may not be possible or
malfunction may occur.
• The side without the imprinting is the printing
surface. Inferior print quality may result if the
printing surface is contaminated with dust or
fingerprints. Be careful to avoid touching the
printing surface.
• Do not bend the paper or tear it off at the
perforations before printing.
• Do not print on used sheets of print paper or
attempt to rewind the ribbon inside the ink
ribbon. Doing so could result in damag es to
the printer.
PNotes on storing print packs
(for quality prints)
• When you are going to store a partially-used
pack of the ink ribbon and print paper for an
extended period of time, store it in its original
bag or in a similar container.
• Avoid placing the print pack in locations that are
subject to high temperature, high humidity,
excessive dust, or direct sunlight.
• Use print pack within two years from the date of
production.
PNote on storing printouts
• Do not affix cellophane tape or plastic erasers to
printouts. Also avoid leaving printouts under
plastic desk mats.

On the printing process
The printer is a dye sublimation printer
using an ink ribbon printing process.
As illustrated below, the ink ribbon is made
up of three colored panels (yellow,
magenta, and cyan), and one clear
lamination panel for overcoating.
When printing begins, the thermal print
head heats up as it passes over the film,
causing the dyes to vaporize and permeate
the surface of the print paper. After yellow,
magenta, and cyan have been laid onto the
print paper, the final cycle lays the laminate
layer, which protects the printed surface.
These four-panel printing cycles are
required for each print.
An ink ribbon contains 40 sets of four
panels. After you print 40 sheets of print
paper, the ink ribbon also runs out.
Printing process flow
Until printing finishes, yellow, magenta, cyan, and
transparent laminate layers are processed as
follows:
The direction ink film moves
inside the ink ribbon
Laminate film
Cyan
Magenta
Yellow
Print paper
PNotes
• During printing, print paper moves back and
forth along the thermal head of the printer,
which is why the print paper is partially ejected
several times from the rear and front paper
outlets.
• After the final cycle of laminate layer finishes,
the print paper is ejected from the paper eject
slot.

Loading the ink ribbon
1 Pull and open the ink ribbon
compartment cover.
2 Insert the ink ribbon in the arrow
direction until it clicks into place.
Removing the ink ribbon
When the ink ribbon runs out, the ERROR
indicator will flash slowly. Open the ink
ribbon compartment cover, push up the
eject lever, and remove the used ink ribbon.
Eject lever
PNotes
• Use the ink ribbon contained in the same box
with the print paper.
• Do not touch the ink ribbon or place the ink
ribbon in a dusty location. Fingerprints or dust
on the ink ribbon may result in imperfect
printing.
GB
3 Close the ink ribbon
compartment cover.

• Never put your hand into the ink ribbon
compartment. The thermal head reaches high
temperatures, especially after repeated printing.
• Do not rewind the ink ribbon and use the
rewound ink ribbon for printing. Otherwise,
proper printing result will not be obtained, or
even a malfunction may occur.
• If the ink ribbon does not click into place,
remove it and then re-insert it. If the ink ribbon
is too slack to be loaded, wind the ink ribbon in
the direction of the arrow to remove the slack.
Inserting the print paper
1 Open the paper tray.
• Do not remove the ink ribbon while printing.
2 Lift the paper tray lid up.

3 Set the print paper into the tray.
You can set up to 20 sheets of print paper.
Riffle the print paper thoroughly. Insert the
print paper into the tray, with the protective
sheet at the top.
If there is no protective sheet:
Riffle the print paper thoroughly. Then insert
the print paper with its printing surface (the
side with no imprint) facing up.
4 Remove the protective sheet.

6 Insert the paper tray into the
printer.
Insert the paper tray straight in until it reaches
the end.
PNotes
• Do not remove the paper tray during printing.
• To avoid paper jam or malfunctions of the
printer, make sure the following before printing:
– Do not write or type on the print paper. Use
the oil ink pen to write on the paper after
printing. You cannot type on the print paper
using an ink-jet printer, etc.
– Do not attach sticker or stamps on the print
paper.
– Do not fold or bend the print paper.
– Total number of print paper does not exceed
20 sheets.
– Do not print on the 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 the print paper ejected without
printed.
PNote on storing the print paper
• Avoid storing the paper with the printed faces
touching each other or in contact with rubber or
plastic products including vinyl chloride or
plasticizer for an extended period of time; color
changes or deterioration of the printed image
may occur.
