If paper jams
If the print paper jams, the ERROR
indicator lights or flashes rapidly and
printing stops.
When the ERROR indicator lights,
remove the print paper and resume
printing.
When the ERROR indicator flashes
rapidly, turn off the power with the
paper tray and print cartridge loaded.
Then turn on the printer again.  When
the printer’s initial loading process ends,
remove the paper tray from the printer.
Check if there is jammed paper in the
paper outlet or feeding slot of the printer
and remove the jammed paper, if any.
Note
If you cannot remove the jammed paper,
contact your Sony dealer or service facilities.
To turn off the printer
Keep pressing the 1 (on/standby)
switch for longer than one second until
the 1 (on/standby) indicator turns to
red.
Pull out the
jammed paper
slowly.
Cleaning the inside of
the printer
If white lines or periodical dots are
printed on the pictures, use the cleaning
cartridge supplied and the protective
sheet of the supplied printing pack to
clean inside the printer.
Tip
You can also use the protective sheet
supplied in the optional printing pack.
Make sure that the digital camera and
the computer are disconnected from the
printer.
1Open the cartridge
compartment door and if
there is a print cartridge,
remove it  (page 12).
2Insert the supplied cleaning
cartridge into the printer and
close the cartridge
compartment door.
3Remove the paper tray from
the printer.  If there is print
paper in the tray, remove the
print paper from the tray.

Troubleshooting
4Place the protective sheet into
the paper tray.
Insert the protective sheet with the
no-imprint side facing up.
                      surface without imprints
5Set the paper tray into the
printer and press the 1 (on/
standby) switch.
The cleaning cartridge and
protective sheet will clean inside the
printer. The 1 (on/standby)
indicator flashes slowly in green.
After the cleaning is finished, the
protective sheet is automatically
ejected.
6Remove the cleaning cartridge
and protective sheet from the
printer.
Tips
•Keep the cleaning cartridge and protective
sheet together for future cleaning.
•With a protective sheet, you can carry out
cleaning for the maximum of about 20
times.
When cleaning ends
Set the print cartridge and print paper
into the printer.
Notes
•Carry out cleaning only when there are
white lines or dots on the print.
•When you can obtain proper printing
performances, cleaning will not improve
the printed picture quality.
•The maximum cleaning times that you can
carry out is approximately 20. As the
number of cleaning times increases, the
cleaning loses its effect.
•Do not place the protective sheet on the
print paper and carry out cleaning, which
may cause paper jam or other troubles.
•If a cleaning does not improve printed
picture quality, please carry out cleaning a
couple of times.

Precautions
On safety
•Be careful not to set or drop any heavy
objects on the power cord, or to damage
the power cord in any way. Never
operate this printer with a damaged
power cord.
•Should any solid object or liquid fall into
the cabinet, unplug the printer and have
it checked by qualified personnel before
operating it any further.
•Never disassemble the printer.
•To disconnect the power cord, pull it out
by the plug. Never pull the power cord
itself.
•When the printer is not going to be used
for an extended period of time,
disconnect the power cord from the wall
outlet.
•Do not handle the printer roughly.
•To reduce the risk of electrical shock,
always unplug the printer from the
electrical outlet before cleaning and
servicing the printer.
On installation
•Avoid placing the printer in a location
subject to:
– vibration
– high humidity
– excessive dust
– direct sunlight
– extremely high or low temperatures
•Do not use electrical equipment near the
printer. The printer will not work
properly in electromagnetic fields.
•Do not place heavy objects on the
printer.
•Leave enough room around the printer
so that the ventilation holes are not
blocked. Blocking these holes may cause
internal heat build-up.
On the AC adaptor
•Be sure to use the AC adaptor supplied
with the printer.  Do not use other AC
adaptors, as this may cause a
malfunction.
•Do not use the supplied AC adaptor to
other devices.
•Do not use an electrical transformer
(travel converter), as this may cause
overheat or a malfunction.
•In case the cord of the AC adaptor is
damaged, never use it any longer, as this
may cause danger.
On moisture condensation
If the printer is brought directly from a
cold location to a warm location or placed
in an extremely warm or humid room,
moisture may condense inside the unit. In
such cases the printer will probably not
work properly and may even develop a
fault if you persist in using it. If moisture
condensation occurs, unplug the AC
power cord of the printer and do not use
the printer for at least one hour.
On transport
When you transport the printer, remove
the print cartridge, paper tray or AC
adaptor, from the printer and put the
printer and its peripherals in the original
box with the protective packaging.
If you no longer have the original box and
packing parts, use similar packing material
so that the printer will not be damaged
while being transported.
On cleaning
Clean the cabinet, panel and controls with
a soft dry cloth, or a soft cloth lightly
moistened with a mild detergent solution.
Do not use any type of solvent, such as
alcohol or benzine, which may damage the
finish.

Glossary
Auto Fine Print  3
The function automatically corrects the
picture quality so that an image may be
printed in more vivid, clear and
beautiful pictures.  It is especially
effective for a darker image with low
contrast.  The pictures are corrected to
reproduce natural skin colors, vivid tree
leaf green, or clear sky blue.
DCF (Design rule for Camera File system)
This camera conforms with the DCF
(Design rule for Camera File system)
standard established by JEITA (Japan
Electronics and Information Technology
Industries Association) to maintain file
exchangeability and compatibility
between digital cameras and related
products. Complete exchangeability and
compatibility, however, are not
guaranteed.
DPOF (Digital Print Order Format)
The format used to record the
information necessary for automatically
printing images shot by a digital camera
at a printing shop or with a home-use
printer. The printer supports DPOF
printing and can automatically print the
preset number of copies of the DPOF
preset images.Exif 2.21 (Exif Print)
Exif (Exchangeable image file format for
digital cameras) Print is a global
standard for digital photo printing.  A
digital camera supporting Exif Print
stores the data relevant to the conditions
of shooting as each shot is taken.  The
printer utilises the Exif Print data stored
in each image file to ensure the printed
result matches the original shot as
closely as possible
*1.
 *1 When the “Auto Fine Print 3” is enabled
and an image (JPEG file) is shot by an Exif
Print (Exif 2.21)-compliant digital camera,
the image is automatically adjusted to its
optimum picture quality and printed.
PictBridge
A standard specified by Camera &
Imaging Products Association that
allows you to connect PictBridge-
complaint digital camera directly to the
printer without a PC, enabling direct
printing on the spot.
