    Getting Started
    Preparations for printing images. A Postcard size (4 x 6 in.) Color Ink Cassette/Paper Set (sold separately) 
    (p.  2) will be used as an example; however, preparation is the same for other sizes. 
    T
    ake care not to get any dust on the paper since it may cause lines on the printed photos or damage the printer  (p. 
     5).
    Preparing the Ink Cassette
    Ink sheet
    Check the ink cassette and ink sheet.
     OHold the ink cassette without touching the ink sheet 
    and check if the size of the paper you are going to 
    print matches the paper size shown on the ink cassette 
    (Postcard (4x6in) Size), Card Size, etc.).
     OCheck that the ink sheet is taut with no slack. If the 
    ink sheet is slack, turn the sprocket as shown in the 
    illustration to tighten it, otherwise the ink sheet may be 
    torn when it is inserted into SELPHY.
     OTake care not to touch the ink sheet, not to handle the ink cassette with\
     wet hands, and not to 
    get any dust or dirt in the ink sheet. Dirt and water drops may cause li\
    nes on photos, poor print 
    quality, a tear in the ink sheet, or cause the printer to malfunction  (p. 
     5). OWhen tightening, turn the sprocket gently without force. Forcing it may \
    cause a tear in the ink 
    sheet or the ink sheet will run out before completing a photo print, res\
    ulting in leftover paper.
     ODo not reuse a spent ink cassette since this may damage the printer or c\
    ause malfunction.
    COPY

    Preparing the Paper Cassette
    Check the paper size.
     OCheck that the prepared ink cassette and the size shown 
    on the paper cassette (POSTCARD (4x6in), CARD SIZE, 
    etc.) match.
    Open the lid.
     OThere are two layers of lids. Open the outer lid  first, 
    then open the inner lid .
    Glossy side
    Set the paper.
     O Set the paper into the paper cassette that you prepared. OYou can place up to 18 sheets in the paper cassette. 
    Inserting 19 or more sheets may damage the printer or 
    cause malfunction.
     OHold the paper as shown in the illustration and load with 
    the glossy side up. (Do not touch the print side (glossy 
    side) of the paper with your fingers. This may prevent 
    you from making clean prints.)
     OIf a protective sheet is included with the paper, remove it 
    and set only the paper into the cassette.
     OWhen making Postcard size prints that have an area for 
    pasting a stamp, insert the cards so that the stamp area 
    is faced as shown in the illustration.
    Close the lid.
     OClose the inner lid until it clicks into place. Leave the 
    outer lid open during printing.
    Printing with L Size
     OYou can print in L size using PCPL-CP400 (sold 
    separately).
     OYou can also print in Postcard size by removing the 
    adapter as shown in the illustration.

     OUse only dedicated paper included in the genuine Canon brand Color Ink C\
    assette/Paper Sets 
    for use in SELPHY CP series printers. Regular printing paper, regular postcards, or dedicated 
    paper for SELPHY ES series printers cannot be used.
     ONever do the following. This may damage the printer or cause the printer to malfunction. -reverse the paper (the glossy side is the print side) - bend or separate the paper at the perforations before printing - use label sheets that have begun to peel or label sheets with 
    portions peeled
     - write on a sheet before printing - reuse paper for printing on the blank part  (p.  5). ODo not touch the springs on the paper cassette.  
    If the springs are bent or deformed, paper will not feed correctly 
    into SELPHY.
     OOne spring is attached at the center of the top surface on card 
    sized paper cassettes.
     OTake care not to touch or rub the print (the glossy) side of the 
    paper, not to handle the paper with wet hands, and not to get any 
    dust or dirt on the paper. Dirt and water drops may cause lines on 
    photos, poor print quality, or damage the printer 
    
    (p. 
     5).
    Attaching the Dust Protection Cover
    By attaching the dust protection cover DPC-CP100, you can prevent dust o\
    r dirt from accumulating on the 
    paper. The dust protection cover may not be included in some regions. Purchase \
    separately if required.
     OInsert the dust protection cover as shown in the 
    illustration.
     OIn a place with a lot of dust or dirt, or outdoors, the dust protection \
    cover may not be able to 
    prevent dust or dirt from accumulating on the paper, so take care to select a clean environment 
    when using SELPHY.  
     O Store the dust protection cover in a bag to prevent dust when not using.\
