GETTING STARTED

Loading the printer paper

Use the pull tab to open the paper compartment. Insert the roll of thermal printer paper (57mm x 25mm) into the paper compartment, ensuring the roll is facing the same direction as shown in the image below (rolling under then back from above).

Fit the roll so some of the paper is feeding out through the slot, then close the paper compartment and tear off the excess paper exposed on the outside.

Installing microSD card

The SD card slot is below the safety cover at the top of the camera. This device will not work with a card above 32GB capacity. To eject the card, push inward.

Charging the camera

Insert a USB-C cable into the charging port at the top of the camera (below safety cover), and connect the other end into a USB power adapter (5V/2A). Once power is connected, the camera will begin charging.

The indicator light is Red while charging is in progress, and will turn off when fully charged.

The camera will give a low battery prompt when further charging is required.

Powering on

Once fully charged, press the Power button once to turn the camera on. By default, it will start in Photo mode, with the rear lens.

To quickly return to default (no filter) option, press the Front/Rear Lens switch button twice, to swap quickly back to the current lens with no filter.

Slide the Reset switch to 'OFF', then slide back to 'ON' before pressing the power button to turn the camera back on. If the switch is left set to 'OFF', it will not turn on.

SETTINGS

To access the settings menu, press the Settings button ⚙️.

Use the Up/Down buttons to navigate the different menu options, and press OK button Ⓜ to enter the selected submenu to edit the settings. Press OK button to confirm selection and exit the submenu.

To exit without saving, press the Playback button.

Print shade

Select from High, Medium or Low to adjust the depth of the print-outs. Low setting has a lighter print out, High setting is darker.

Resolution

Select between HD (high definition) or FHD (Full high definition) for the recording resolution. The higher the resolution, the more space on the memory card this will use.

Delay photo

Also known as an auto-timer or self-timer, this allows the user to set a delay between when the Shutter button is pressed and when the photo is taken. Select between 3 seconds, 5 seconds, or 10 seconds. To disable, select Off.

Three photos

Also known as burst shots, this takes and saves 3 photos within approximately 2 seconds.

Cyclic record

This setting applies to video mode only. When enabled, this allows videos to continuously record while saving as short clips. Select between 3 minute, 5 minute, or 10 minute intervals. When video is recording, the device will automatically save the current video and begin recording the next once the selected time has passed. This is ideal for recording long videos indefinitely, without needing to manually stop and save clips. It also ensures smaller, easier to manage files rather than one long clip.

Scene

Scenes will overlay a colour across the image, allowing for enhanced detail in low-light and sunny conditions. Select between Auto (default), Sunlight, Cloudy, Tungsten, or Fluorescent. Filters can be applied over scene settings.

Purikura

“Purikura” refers to the Filters, as described in the Operation section. Here they can be set manually, as a list from 1 - 35.

Photo zoom

When enabled, the rear-facing camera will be set in zoom mode, allowing items further in distance to be seen from the lens.

Date tag

When enabled, this will save the current date and time onto the photo as it is taken. Date tags cannot be added or removed from photos that have already been taken. To adjust the date and time information, refer to Time Setting option.

Beep sound

Select the volume of the buttons/functions. Choose between high volume, low volume or off (silent) options.

LED flash

Set the mode for the camera's rear-facing flash/light, selecting between Off, On, or Always On. Always On allows the light to stay on as long as the camera is powered on, even when not taking photos or video.

Time

Set the device's year/month/day/time data.

Auto Power Off

When set, the camera will automatically power down after not being used for the set time (select between 3, 5 or 10 minutes). Set to ‘Off’ to disable this, but note that the battery life will be shorter if left on.
