1.5 Un-parking the print head (illustration 2)

a Open the box and remove the DMP from all
packaging.
b Read and remove warning label that covers
the Ribbon cartridge door.
c Open the ribbon cartridge door, next con-
nect the power supply and switch on the
DMP. The print head will lift up enabling
the foam insert to be removed. The foam
should be retained in case the DMP has to
be returned for servicing.
d Close the ribbon cartridge door.
NOTE: Store the foam protector and pack-
aging in a safe place for future shipping of
the product. To set the print head to its
travel position first make sure the DMP is
in "live" mode. Then place the foam pro-
tector in between the print head and lower
the print head by pressing the menu button
(1e) and the print button (1h) simulta-
neously for 3 seconds. Once the head is
parked do not touch any of the buttons
whilst the DMP is on.

1.6 Loading ribbon (illustration 3)

The DMP uses Polaroid C3000 Thermal
Photo Ribbon. This Photo Ribbon has been
specifically designed for use in the DMP.
a Open the ribbon cartridge door.
b Check that the aperture into the DMP is
clear of obstructions. If the print head is
down, plug in the power and switch ON.
c Remove the cartridge from its wrapping,
avoid contact with the ribbon. Do not place
the ribbon on any surface where it might
pick up debris. Holding the cartridge by its
tab, insert it into the DMP until you hear it
"click" into position. The green latch
should be in the down position.
d Close the ribbon cartridge door.

1.7 Loading paper (illustration 4)

The DMP uses Polaroid C3000 Thermal
Photo paper, which has been specifically
designed for use in the DMP.
a Pull the paper tray out the front of the
DMP.
b Remove one pack (25 sheets) of thermal
paper from its wrapping taking care to only
handle the paper around the edges. Touch-
ing the printable surface with your fingers
will cause marks to appear on the finished
print.
c Load the paper into the tray observing that
the paper is in the correct orientation.
d Slide the full paper tray back into the DMP
until it clicks into position.
Note: Remember that when refilling the
paper tray the ribbon cartridge has enough
capacity to print on 50 sheets of paper.
The cartridge should be replaced once both
packs of thermal paper have been
exhausted.
