    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.
