Avoiding Left Over Paper
Note the following to prevent wasted paper, which occurs if ink is consumed 
faster than the paper.

Storing Prints
•	To remove any extra paper from the 
edges of a print, fold the paper along the 
perforations and tear the edges off.
•	 When writing on prints, use an oil-based 
pen.
•	 To prevent discoloration, do not store 
prints where temperatures exceed 40 °C 
(104 °F), in humid or dusty places, or in 
direct sunlight.
•	 Also avoid the following actions, which may cause discoloration, fading,\
 
or bleeding: sticking tape on the printed surface, allowing the printed \
surface to contact vinyl or plastic, applying alcohol or volatile solven\
ts to 
the printed surface, or leaving the printed surface pressed firmly against 
other surfaces or objects over extended periods.
•	 When storing prints in an album, choose an album with photo covers 
made of nylon, polypropylene, or cellophane.
•	Color may change over time or depending on storage conditions. 
Canon cannot be held liable for discoloration.
After Printing
 Turn off SELPHY (=  11 ) and remove any memory cards or USB 
flash drives.
 Lower the screen for storage.
 Unplug the power cord from the outlet and disconnect the adapter plug 
from SELPHY.
•	 If the compact power adapter is still warm, wait for it to cool down 
before putting it away.
 Remove the paper cassette and close the paper cassette compartment 
cover. Leave any remaining paper in the cassette, and store the 
cassette in a dark, cool, and dry place away from dust.
•	 Leave the ink cassette in SELPHY.
•	 Store SELPHY
 on a flat surface, away from sunlight and dust. Any 
dust that gets inside SELPHY may cause white banding on photos 
or damage the printer.
•	 Store any extra ink cassettes in the original package or a bag, away 
from sunlight and dust.
•	 Store any unused paper or ink cassettes in their unopened 
packages, away from sunlight.
