by bending them.
 OUse an oil-based pen to write on prints. OTo prevent discoloration, do not store prints in places subject to 
temperatures of over 40 °C (104 °F), humid or dusty places, or in direct 
sunlight.
 OAvoid the following actions as they may result in color change, color 
fading or color bleeding: Sticking any type of adhesive tape on a print \
surface, allowing print surfaces to come into contact with vinyl or plas\
tic, 
applying alcohol or other volatile solvents to a print surface, or leavi\
ng the print surface tightly pressed 
against other surfaces or objects for prolonged periods.

inside the cassette and store the cassette in a dark, cool, and dry plac\

the original packaging or a bag to protect it from dust, and store it in\
 a dark place.

s, and keep them in 
a dark place.
Maintaining the Printer
To prevent dust and dirt from causing lines on photos and to ensure the p\
rint quality, clean SELPHY regularly 
using the supplied cleaner unit  (p.  2) before printing and when changing the ink cassette. Note that the 
cleaning unit may not be included in some regions.
Cleaning SELPHY.
