Always use the paper specific to SELPHY CP series printers included in the genuine Canon brand Color Ink Cassette/Paper Sets. Use only dedicated paper. Regular printing paper, regular postcards, or paper specified for use in SELPHY ES series printers cannot be used.Never do the following, as it may lead to failure or cause the printer t\
o malfunction:
- mistakenly reversing the paper (the shiny side is the print side)
- bending or separating the paper at the perforations
- using label sheets that have begun to peel or label sheets with portio\
ns peeled back
- writing on a sheet before printing
- printing on already printed paper
- reusing a spent color ink cassetteDo not touch the springs of the paper cassette. If the springs are bent or deformed, paper will not feed correctly into \
SELPHY.



Do not touch the print surface (shiny side), scratch it or touch 
the paper with wet hands. Prints will not be desirable if the print surface becomes dirty or wet.


4Close the lid.
Close the inner lid until it clicks into place. 
Leave the outer lid open during printing. 
For Wide size paper cassette (sold separately), 
close the inner lid first, then slide the inner lid 
until it clicks to the opposite direction of the  
arrow.


3Set the paper.
Set the paper into the paper cassette that you 
prepared in Step 1.
You can place up to 18 sheets in the paper 
cassette (up to 12 for Wide size). Inserting 19 
or more sheets (13 or more for Wide size) may 
damage the printer or cause malfunction. 
Hold the paper stack as shown in the illustration, 
with the shiny side facing up. Do not touch the 
print side (shiny side) of the paper with your 
fingers. Doing so may prevent you from making 
clean prints.
When a protective sheet is present, remove it 
and only set the paper stack into the cassette. 
When making postcard size prints that have a 
section for pasting a stamp, insert the paper so 
that the stamp section is facing the inner lid (as 
shown in the illustration).
