Printing takes too long
• 
SELPHY will temporarily halt printing if it exceeds a specific temperature; this does 
not indicate a problem. Wait until the printer cools off. During continuous printing, in 
hot environments, or if the printer’s interior becomes hot because the rear-side air 
vent (
) is blocked, SELPHY may temporarily stop printing, causing printing to 
take longer.
• 
Printing may take some time depending on the printing environment. In this case, try 
another printing method (printing from a memory card, printing via Wi-Fi, printing via 
USB cable).
