1.50 m of a tap or water source, or outside. The printer should be operated within an ambient
temperature range of 10°C to 35°C. Your printer should be used at an ambient temperature of
between 15°C and 35°C for optimum printing results.
Do not set up your printer in a dusty environment as dust deposits might adversely affect the print
quality of your photos.
Only use the power supply that is supplied (PF60N24AS0 of Shanghai Moons' Automation
Control Co., Ltd). Connect it to a mains outlet in compliance with the installation instructions in this
booklet and the indications stated on the identification label located on the unit (voltage, current
and frequency of the electricity network). As a precaution, in case of danger, the mains adapters
act as a disconnecting mechanism for the 230V power supply. They should be placed near the
device and should be easily accessible.
Never open the top cover when the printer is operating, as you risk breaking the film that may
result a printer malfunction.
After using the printer, wait a few moments after switching the printer off before opening it. To

Improving the print quality
Use the "Crystal Image" and "Red Eye" correction functions.
Crystal Image makes all the necessary settings and corrections related to picture sharpness, colour
management and contrast automatically to obtain the best print quality possible.
Furthermore, exposure defects will be corrected (for example, under-exposed photos will be made
lighter or the portions of photo with strong contrasts will be compensated for). The red-eye correction
function touches up "red eyes" on shots taken with the flash.
The following table shows the number of times that the
key must be pressed to enable or disable
the components of the "Crystal Image" function.
Other functions
New effects (special effects, sepia, B&W, negative, black & white and colour embossing,
solarisation, black & white and colour contour, charcoal).
Organisation of photographs (choice of location).
Slide show.
TV display.
Sudoku.
Screen background customisation.
Use of these functions is detailed in the user booklet on the CD-ROM provided
with your printer.
Remarks:
By default, the "Crystal Image" and "Red Eye" correction functions are disabled.
When printing from a personal computer, the "Crystal Image" and "Red Eye" correction
functions are not proposed.
