genuine Canon accessories. Canon shall not be liable for any damage to this

product and/or accidents such as fire, etc., caused by the malfunction of non-

genuine Canon accessories (e.g., a leakage and/or explosion of a battery pack).

Please note that this warranty does not apply to repairs arising out of the

malfunction of non-genuine Canon accessories, although you may request

such repairs on a chargeable basis.

Depending on the region, L size

items may be supplied with the

printer.

you mismatch paper stocks to paper

cassettes or ink cassettes. The

matching paper size is written where

shown on paper cassettes and ink

cassettes.

connector to the printer's DC IN

terminal.

Wait!

the printer driver.

Can I Use Standard

How many prints

can the starter ink

cassette print?

It can make five prints, the same

number as the supplied starter

paper sheets. A symbol similar to the

one at the right will appear on the

LCD monitor when the ink runs out. Please

exchange the ink cassette with a new one.

Note that dye-sublimation thermal transfer

photo printers such as the SELPHY series cannot

print any more prints than those noted on the

color ink/paper set packages. They use a

technology very different from that used in ink

jet printers.

You Can Also Connect the Camera to Print

can connect the camera to the printer for easy printing. If your camera

does not have a (Print/Share) button, please check its user manual.

monitor.
