Important!
• When printing, the tape repeatedly feeds forward and back while the print operation is being per-
formed. The tape is cut automatically after the print operation is complete. Never pull on the tape or
turn off QG-100 power while a print operation is being performed.
• The POWER indicator color becomes orange while printing is being performed, and changes back to
green when printing is completed.
• Pressing PRINT causes the POWER indicator to start flashing orange, indicating that data is being
received from the digital camera. It may take a bit of time before actual printing begins.
• Start of a print operation may cause a little bit of blank tape to feed from the printer.
• Never open the printer's cover while a print operation is in progress.
• Printing may stop momentarily while you are outputting a series of prints or after you have used the
QG-100 continually for a long time. This is a normal operation that the QG-100 performs to protect
against overheating, and does not indicate malfunction. Normal printing should resume automatically.
• The color of an image printed on the printer may vary a little from the color of the actual item.
