with either an S-VIDEO OUT Socket or a
VIDEO OUT Socket can be used, (p.9)
Q3: Can a title or trimming frame be input
from a camera?
A3: You can input your own titles or trimming
frames by shooting them with a Video
Camera, (p.42 - 45)
Q4: How should I adjust the level settings
when storing the trimming frame?
A4: The level adjustments are similar to the
darkness adjustment on a copy machine.
Under normal conditions, you do not need to
adjust the settings. However, if the trimming
frame which you created shows unwanted
tines, then reduce the level of the trimming
frame for the best appearance, (p.43)
Q5: Can the Digital Photo Printer print images
from HDTV broadcasts?
A5: No, because the video signals are different.
Q6: What should I do about poor coloring?
A6: The most important factor is the coloring of
the original shot of the image. The color and
other parameters can be adjusted by
selecting “PICTURE” on the MENU Screen.

Q7: When I adjust the coloring and other
aspects of picture quality, can I check the
results on the television screen?
A7: Yes, this can be done for all the adjustments
except SHARPNESS. The quality of the
picture on the television monitor will differ
slightly from the quality of the printed image.
Test print the image, adjust the television so
that the quality of the picture on the screen is
close as possible to that of the printed image,
and then adjust the Digital Photo Printer.

Q8: Is it possible to insert a title for each
ALBUM Mode screen?
A8: No, it is not possible in ALBUM Mode. It is
possible in MULTI FRAME Mode, but it is not
possible to insert a different title for each
mini-frame.
Q9: Which should I use, the S-VIDEO IN
Socket or the VIDEO IN Socket?
A9: When connecting a device that has an S-
VIDEO OUT Socket, it is best to use the S-
VIDEO IN Socket. Doing so will provide the
best print quality.
If devices are connected to both the S-
VIDEO IN Socket and the VIDEO IN Socket,
the S-VIDEO IN Socket takes precedence.

Q10: What should I do if a paper jam occurs?
A10: Remove the paper from either the O Rear
Paper Removal Port or the 0 Print Exit
(above the Paper Cassette). If the paper
cannot be removed, turn off the printer. Then,
turn the printer on again and remove the
paper from either O or Q- If paper still
cannot be removed, please contact your
nearest Panasonic Dealer. (p.15)
