Taking PictureMate With You


PictureMate's handle makes it easy to carry short distances. If you have the optional battery, you can use PictureMate just about anywhere, even if an electrical outlet is not available.

If PictureMate is going to travel a longer distance, you should pack it carefully to help protect it from getting damaged.

Caution: Keep PictureMate out of the sun and don't leave it in your car or other location where it can get too hot or too cold.

  1. If PictureMate is on, press the On button to turn it off.
  2. Wait until the photo viewer screen goes blank, then unplug the power cord from the electrical outlet.
  3. Remove all paper and printed photos.
  4. Push down the top of the paper support and close it against PictureMate. Then close the output tray and lower the screen.


  5. Disconnect the power cord and any connected USB cable from the back of PictureMate.


  6. Pack PictureMate along with its power cable and adapter in the box that PictureMate came in, or in the optional carrying case.
  7. Caution: Make sure the photo cartridge is installed. Do not remove the photo cartridge before transporting. Don't place PictureMate on its side or upside down, or ink may leak.

    Note: If your prints don't look as good after PictureMate has been moved, try aligning the print head. See Aligning the Print Head Directly From PictureMate.
