Care
- Cleaning: Gently wipe the exterior of the printer with a soft, dry, lint-free cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners. Periodically clean the print head by running the blue smart sheet included in each ZINK paper pack through the printer.
- Paper Storage: Store KODAK ZINK Photo Paper in its original packaging in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures, to maintain print quality.
- Battery Maintenance: To prolong battery life, avoid fully discharging the battery frequently. Charge the printer regularly, especially if it will be stored for an extended period.
