SIZE

IS

SET

CORRECTLY

The printer issues the Paper or Photo Size Error when your chosen photo size does not match the paper
size that is set. This typically happens when you are trying to print from a PictBridge-enabled digital camera. You
may have left the printer control panel Photo Size menu item setting at 8.5 x 11” or 5 x 7” size, but your
camera setting has print size of 4 x 6” or L. You need to make sure your chosen photo size is 4 x 6” or
10 x 15 cm

, depending on the typically used photo size for your country or region.

Make sure the 4 x 6 in. (10 x 15 cm) photo paper is loaded correctly.

If your camera lets you change the print size setting, change the print size selection to 4 x 6 in. (10 x 15 cm) on
the PictBridge-enabled digital camera.

If your camera does not allow you to change the paper size setting, use the control panel to change the paper
size to 4 x 6 in. (10 x 15 cm).
