If you think there is a problem with SELPHY, first check the following. If the items below do not solve your problem, contact a Canon Customer Support Help Desk as listed on the included customer support list.

 Power will not turn on • Make sure the plug is correctly connected (p. 10). • Hold the q button pressed until the start-up image appears on the screen (p. 11). • When using a battery (sold separately), use a fully charged battery (p. 29).

 Cannot print • Make sure SELPHY is turned on (p. 11). • Make sure that the ink and paper cassettes are correctly inserted (p. 10). • When the ink is spent, replace the ink cassette with a new one. When the paper is spent, refill the paper cassette with new paper (p. 14). • Make sure you are using the correct combination of paper, paper cassette and ink cassette (p. 8). • Connect SELPHY to only one device at a time. If SELPHY is connected simultaneously to a digital camera, computer and has a memory card inserted, you may not be able to print properly. • Make sure there is no slack in the ink sheet (p. 8). • Make sure that you are using dedicated paper (p. 9). • Depending on the room temperature, SELPHY may overheat and temporarily stop operating. This is not a malfunction. Wait until the temperature drops and printing resumes. If SELPHY is connected to a computer, a message will appear on the computer screen. Do not cancel the print. Wait until printing resumes. Cannot display/print images from memory card or USB flash memory • Make sure the memory card is inserted all the way into the correct slot with the label facing upward (pp. 12, 13). • Make sure the USB flash memory is inserted all the way, in the correct direction (p. 14). • Make sure you are using a supported image type (p. 12). • Make sure that any memory card requiring an adapter is inserted into the adapter before being inserted into the slot (p. 12). Printing from digital cameras • Make sure your digital camera supports PictBridge (p. 27). • Make sure SELPHY and the digital camera are connected correctly (p. 27). • Make sure the battery/batteries in your digital camera are not depleted. If there is insufficient charge, replace the battery with a fully charged one, or new batteries. Printing from computers • Make sure you installed the software according to the correct procedure (p. 23). • Make sure SELPHY is connected directly to a port on the computer with the USB cable (p. 24). • Problems Exclusive to Windows: Make sure the printer is not set to offline. If it is, right-click the printer icon and cancel the offline setting. • Problems Exclusive to Macintosh: Make sure SELPHY is registered on the Printer List (p. 24).  Cannot print the date Printing from memory cards or USB flash memory • Make sure the date imprint option is set (p. 28).

Printing from mobile phones

• The date cannot be imprinted on images sent from a mobile phone (p. 30). Printing from digital cameras • Make sure the date setting in your digital camera is set to [On]. However, if the setting is [Default], the date imprint settings of SELPHY will be used.  Cannot make clean prints • Make sure the ink sheet and paper are not dusty. • Make sure there is no dust stuck on the inside surfaces of SELPHY (p. 34). • Make sure no condensation has formed on the inside surfaces of SELPHY (p. 34). • Make sure SELPHY is not placed near a device emitting electromagnetic waves or a strong magnetic field (p. 5).  Colors on the computer display and the print are different • Color generation methods are different with computer screens and printers. Moreover, the variance may be attributable to the environment in which the screen is viewed (color and strength of the light), or to the screen’s color adjustment settings.  After using the computer to cancel a print in progress, an image that had already been printed was printed again when printing resumed • When you restart printing on a Macintosh computer after canceling, an already printed image may print again when printing resumes.

 Paper will not fit into cassette • Make sure the paper size matches the size of the paper cassette (p. 2).  Paper is not feeding properly/frequent paper jams • Make sure the paper and paper cassette are correctly inserted (pp. 8, 10). • Make sure there are less than 19 sheets in the cassette. • Make sure 19 or more sheets have not collected on the outer lid of the paper cassette. • Make sure that you are using dedicated paper (p. 9).  Cannot print the specified number of prints/paper left over • Canceling a print in progress or pulling on the ink sheet will consume ink. If paper runs out while printing many images, do not remove the ink cassette, as this will consume ink. Instead, refill the paper without removing the ink cassette.  Paper is jammed • If the paper is sticking out from the front or back (paper ejection slot) (p. 6) of SELPHY, gently tug on the paper to remove it. However, if a gentle tug is not sufficient to remove the paper, do not attempt to forcibly pull it out. Turn the printer off and on repeatedly until the paper is ejected.

If a problem occurs with SELPHY, a message appears on the screen. If a possible solution displays with the error message, follow the on-screen instructions. If no solution displays, refer to “Troubleshooting” (p. 31). If these items do not solve your problem, contact a Canon Customer Support Help Desk as listed on the included customer support list.

*1 The “concentration gradation method” used by SELPHY allows 256 shades (max) of color to be represented per dot. In comparison, printers using the area intensity method represent shades by the number of dots printed in a unit of area, i.e. 256 dots (16 dots vertical x 16 dots horizontal) are needed to represent the same 256 shades of color. SELPHY’s color representation is therefore equivalent to a 4800 x 4800 dpi resolution based on an area intensity method.

• Gradation refers to the number of shades that can be represented on a print. For example, black and white has two gradations, while 256 gradations include the shades of gray going from white to black that can be represented. • “dpi” refers to the number of dots that can be printed in 1 inch (“dots per inch”). 2 * Measured from start of the yellow printing pass to final output. *3 Bluetooth unit BU-30 (sold separately) is required. *4 Dedicated adapter (commercially available) is required.

Handling Precautions

 Do not subject the printer to excessive force. Force or impact on the printer may result in paper jams or equipment damage.

 Be careful not to spray the equipment with insecticides or other volatile substances. In addition, do not

store the equipment in contact with rubber or vinyl products for long periods of time. This may cause deterioration of the casing.

 Depending on the room temperature, SELPHY may overheat and temporarily stop operating. This is not a malfunction. SELPHY will resume normal printing as soon as it cools down. Temporary stoppages increase printing time and are most likely to occur when printing continuously, if a room is unusually warm, or if the air vents on the back of SELPHY are blocked and internal temperature is high.  Avoid condensation on SELPHY when moving it from a cold to a warm place by putting it in an airtight, sealable plastic bag and allowing for adjustment to temperature changes gradually before removing from the bag. In the event that condensation does form within SELPHY, keep it at room temperature until the water droplets evaporate naturally before use.  When SELPHY becomes dirty, wipe the casing with a soft dry cloth.  When dust or dirt has accumulated on the battery cover or vents (pp. 6, 29), be sure to remove the ink cassette (p. 14) before cleaning. If dust gets in through the vents, the printer may not print cleanly. Never wipe using volatile solvents such as benzine, paint thinner, or diluted neutral solvent. They may cause deformation or peeling of the casing.
