Proper Usage And Handling - Canon SELPHY ES1 User Manual

Proper Usage and Handling

Usage Location
Leave about 15 cm (6 in.) of clearance at the front and back of the equipment and 10 cm
(4 in.) of clearance on both sides.
Be sure to leave clearance around the paper-handling slot (at the front) so that paper has
sufficient room to extend out from the slot during printing.
Do not use near strong magnets or near devices that produce strong electromagnetic
fields.
Electromagnetic radiation from devices such as TVs and game machines, and strong
magnetic fields from devices such as speakers and large motors, may cause distortion in
printed images.
When Not In Use
Be sure to close the print receptacle cover.
If dirt or foreign objects enter the printer, print quality may deteriorate.
Unplug the power cord from the outlet. If using the battery pack, remove it.
But please note that you should plug in and run the printer at least once every six months
to ensure that it remains functional.
When Planning Not to Use for an Extended Period
When the printer is not in use, please remove the cartridge from the printer and store it.
Return the cartridge to its original bag and package. Store the package horizontally.
Before Transporting
Close the print receptacle cover.
If dirt or foreign objects enter the printer, print quality may deteriorate.
Avoid Condensation Related Problems
You can avoid condensation by placing the equipment (printer, cartridge) in an airtight,
resealable plastic bag and letting the equipment adjust to temperature changes slowly
before removing the equipment from the bag.
Moving the equipment rapidly between hot and cold temperatures may cause
condensation (water droplets) to form on the external and internal surfaces of the
equipment.
If Condensation Forms Inside the Printer
Stop using the printer immediately.
Continued use may damage the equipment.
Wait until the water droplets have evaporated completely before resuming use.
