Printing on Photographic-Quality Paper (4" x 6" / 100 x 148 mm)
2. For automatic feeding, load the guide sheet supplied with
the paper into the sheet feeder, placing the printed side
facing down. Then, place the Photographic-Quality Paper
on the guide sheet. Only the glossy side of the Photo-
graphic-Quality Paper is printable, so be sure to load the
sheets with the glossy, printable side up. When handling
sheets, hold the bent top of the guide sheet only to avoid
smearing or discoloring the glossy printing surface.
3. Adjust the paper feed guide to the width of the paper.
4. For manual feeding, load one sheet of paper in the sheet
feeder, and press the
ready / insert button.

Note
Only the glossy surface of paper can be subjected to Photo-
graphic-Quality printing. Since the opposite surface cannot be
printed on, make sure the paper is correctly oriented.
Important
•
You may load as many as 20 sheets of Photographic-Quality
Paper at one time.
•
Fan the sheets before loading them on the sheet feeder. The
printer may feed more than one sheet at one time when they
are stuck together.
•
If you do not load the guide sheet with the Photographic-
Quality Paper, the final sheet may not feed properly.
•
Always use the Photographic-Quality ink cartridges to print
on the Photographic-Quality Paper. Printing with any other
combination can damage the cartridge ribbon as well as the
paper.
•
Remove both the Photographic-Quality Paper and the guide
sheet before loading any other type of paper.
•
The guide sheet is not reusable. When you load a new set of
Photographic-Quality Paper, make sure that you load them
with the new guide sheet from the same package.
•
Note that when all the Photographic-Quality Paper has been
fed from the sheet feeder, the printer will detect that the pa-
per feeder is empty and will not feed the guide sheet. If you
try to feed the guide sheet through the printer, it may get dam-
aged. Do not use a damaged guide sheet in the printer.
