An error message such as [Paper and ink do not match] or [No ink] is displayed (SELPHY CP1200)

Solution

    If an error icon appears in the printer's [LCD monitor] as shown below, or error messages such as [Paper and ink do not match] or [No Ink] appear in the camera's [LCD monitor], please check the paper cassette and the ink cassette combination for a mismatch.



    1. Check the sizes indicated on the [paper cassette] and the [ink cassette].





    2. Check the size on the [paper cassette].
    Open the <Outer cover>.
    Check the size.



    3. Check the [ink cassette] size.
    Holding the ink cassette without touching the ink sheet, check the size to make sure it matches the size of paper you will print on.



    4. Confirm that the [paper cassette] and the [ink cassette] have the same size indication. Next, reinsert them to the printer, and then try to print again.
