2) but the same steps are followed
• Do not hold the ink cassette with wet hands. Avoid touching the
ink sheet, and avoid getting dust on it. Dirt or moisture may cause
banding or affect print quality, tear ink sheets and prevent printing,
or damage the printer (= 4).
• When turning the sprocket, turn it gently, only until the sheet is taut.
Forcing the sprocket or overtightening it may tear ink sheets and
prevent printing, or SELPHY may run out of ink before paper.
• Never reuse ink cassettes, which may damage the printer or cause
malfunction.
