     Troubleshooting
Cleaning 
If white lines or period-like dots are printed on 
the pictures, the thermal transfer head may be 
soiled with the dust accumulated inside the 
printer. Use the cleaning cartridge and cleaning 
sheet supplied to clean inside the printer.
Before you start cleaning the printer, please 
remove any memory cards, USB memories, or 
USB cables from the printer.
1Open the ink ribbon compartment 
door and if there is an ink ribbon 
inserted, remove it.
2Insert the supplied cleaning 
cartridge into the printer and close 
the ink ribbon compartment door.
3Remove the paper tray from the 
printer. If there is print paper in the 
tray, remove it.
4Place the cleaning sheet into the 
paper tray with the no-imprint side 
facing up.
5Set the paper tray into the printer 
and press PRINT.
The cleaning cartridge and cleaning sheet 
will clean inside the printer. After the 
cleaning is finished, the cleaning sheet is 
automatically ejected.
6Remove the cleaning cartridge and 
sheet from the printer.
Tip
Keep the cleaning cartridge and cleaning sheet 
together for future cleanings.
Notes
 If you already enjoy proper printing performances, 
cleaning will not improve the printed picture 
quality.
 Do not place the cleaning sheet on top of print 
paper and carry out cleaning, as this may cause a 
paper jam or other troubles.
 If a cleaning does not improve printed picture 
quality, please carry out the cleaning process a 
couple of times.
 You cannot clean the printer while it is connected 
to a PC or a PictBridge camera.

Precautions
 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.
 Avoid placing the printer in a location 
subject to:
– vibration
–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 for other 
devices.
 In case the cord of the AC adaptor is 
damaged, do not use it any longer, as this 
may be dangerous.
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 ink 
ribbon, paper tray, AC adaptor, the memory 
card, or a USB memory 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.
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.

About the Memory Cards
Types of “Memory Stick” media 
that the printer can use

manufactured by Sony Corporation. However, we 
do not guarantee the operations of all the “Memory 
Stick” media media.
*2The printer is equipped with a slot compatible with 
both standard-size and Duo-size media. Without a 
“Memory Stick Duo” media adaptor, you can use 
both a standard-size “Memory Stick” media and 
the compact-size “Memory Stick Duo” media.
*3When using a “Memory Stick Micro” media with 
the printer, always insert it into an “M2” adaptor.
*4“M2” is an abbreviation for “Memory Stick 
Micro” media. In this section, “M2” is used to

Notes on use
 Do not insert more than one “Memory Stick” 
media at the same time, which may cause 
trouble with the printer.
 If you insert a “Memory Stick Micro” media 
into the printer without an “M2” adaptor, 
you may be unable to remove the “Memory 
Stick Micro” media.
 If you insert a “Memory Stick Micro” media 
into an “M2” adaptor, and insert the “M2” 
adaptor into a “Memory Stick Duo” media 
adaptor, the printer may not operate 
properly.
 When you format a “Memory Stick” media, 
use the format function of your digital 
camera. If you format a “Memory Stick” 
media with your computer, images may not 
be displayed properly.
 When you format a “Memory Stick” media, 
all the data including protected image files 
will be erased. To avoid erasing important 
data by accident, make sure to check the 
contents of the “Memory Stick” media 
before formatting.
