Setting Up
If the video equipment
has the S-video output
connector
Connect it to the S VIDEO
INPUT connector of the
printer using the optional
S-video connecting cable
so that you can get better
picture quality. In this
case, you do not need to
connect the video
connector.
When both the S VIDEO
INPUT and VIDEO INPUT
connectors of the
printer are connected
The input signals from
the S VIDEO INPUT
connector are
automatically selected.
Notes
· Before making
connections, turn off
the power of the
printer, the video
equipment and
television.
· See also to the
instruction manuals for
the video equipment.
Connecting to the video equipment
When printing images from the video equipment such
as a VCR or camcorder, use the supplied video
connecting cable to connect the video equipment and
the printer. Also connect the printer to the television to
display the images to be printed.
For printing operations, see page 20.

When you add paper to
a partially full feeder,
make sure that the total
number of sheets does
not exceed this limit. If
you do, the paper may
jam.
· Do not place different
types of paper in the
feeder. If you do, the
paper may jam.
· To insert paper after
the feeder is attached to
the printer, first remove
the feeder from the
printer and then insert
the paper into the
