Question 5

How do I insert the photo card into the CANON SELPHY CP760 printer?

For smaller cards like miniSD, insert it into the lower part of the connector.

Loading the photo paper

Remove the protective sheet, ensuring that the glossy side is facing up
Close the internal cover until you hear a click

Accepted paper types

The CANON SELPHY CP760 accepts the following formats: postcards (100 x 148 mm), L size (89 x 119 mm), card size (54 x 86 mm), and large size (100 x 200 mm). Important: only use Canon paper specific to the CP series kits. Never use commercial printing paper, standard postcards, or paper intended for SELPHY ES printers.

Check that no debris is blocking the output slot

Question 7

The CANON PIXMA TS705a printer is not picking up paper, how can I resolve this issue?

Accepted Answer

If your Canon PIXMA TS705a printer is not picking up paper, here are the checks to perform in order:

1. Check the paper positioning

Remove the cassette and the output tray
Place the paper against the front paper guide (align it with the LTR or A4 mark)
Slide the right paper guide to the width of your paper
Load at least 2 sheets (a single sheet may not be picked up)
Make sure to properly replace the cassette and pull the output tray towards you

2. Critical point: the output tray

If you do not pull out the paper output tray, an error occurs at startup and the printer will not pick up the paper. Ensure that it is fully extended.

3. Clean the rollers and check for obstructions

Turn off the printer and unplug it
Open the top cover
Check that the rollers are not dirty or damaged
Look for paper remnants or small pieces stuck
Close the cover and turn it back on

If the problem persists after these checks, the feed rollers may be worn and require maintenance or replacement.
