Caution

Use of genuine Canon Color Ink/Paper Sets for SELPHY CP printers is recommended to achieve correct printing and excellent performance of this product.
Canon Color Ink/Paper Sets for SELPHY ES and postcards cannot be used with this product.
Never do the following, which may damage the printer or cause malfunction.

- Loading paper upside-down, with the glossy and back sides reversed

- Bending or separating paper at the perforations before printing

- Using label paper whose upper label surface is peeling off or has been partially pulled up

- Writing on paper before printing

- Reusing paper, as by printing on blank areas

Do not touch the springs on the paper cassette. Accidentally bending the springs may prevent efficient paper feeding.

Springs

Note that one spring is attached in the center on the top of card-size paper cassettes.
Avoid touching or rubbing the glossy, printing side of the paper. Do not handle paper with wet hands, and keep paper free of dust. Dirt or moisture may cause banding or affect print quality, or damage the printer.

1. Open the paper compartment cover.

2. Load the paper cassette

Making sure the outer cover is open, insert the paper cassette all the way into the compartment.
