Printing is too slow.
● It takes a few moments for PictureMate to process
your images before printing them.
● If PictureMate is in a hot or sunny location, move it
to a cooler place and try printing again.
For faster printing, try these tips:
● Don’t print more than 40 pictures at a time.
● Photos with borders print faster than borderless
photos.
● Turn off special features such as color effects and
red-eye reduction.
● JPEG photo files print faster than TIFF files.
Software Installation Problems
● Follow the instructions beginning on page 34 to
install your software. Don’t connect PictureMate to
your computer until you are instructed to.
● Close other programs, including screen savers and
virus protection software, and try installing again.
● Make sure your system meets the requirements
listed in your on-screen User’s Guide.
● To print over a network, see the on-screen User’s
Guide for instructions on setting up printing.
