About Color Print Paper Sheet Sets (optional)
You must use one of the sets shown in the following chart:
SET
CONTENTS
USES
PV-50SFAU
• Standard Print Paper (50 Sheets)
Print your favorite images, just like
snapshots.
(Standard type) • Ink Cassette (50 Prints)
PV-25SFSAU
(Sticker type)
• Sticker Print Paper (25 Sheets)
• Ink Cassette (25 Prints)
Make customized seals and stick
them on greeting cards, envelopes,
letters, etc.
Before Printing
After Printing
● Do not touch printing side of the paper.
● Do not use paper that is torn or curled, as
this can result in paper jamming.
● Do not use paper that is wet or damp.
Printing may not be possible and paper
jamming may occur.
● If you touch a fresh print with wet hands,
the print image may be discolored.
● If a print absorbs organic cleaning solvents
(alcohol, ester, keton, etc.), the colors will
fade.
● If cellophane tape or soft PVC are affixed to
a print, the chemical reaction will cause
accelerated color fading.
● Do not touch or pull out the ink cassette’s
ink sheet.
● Keep young children away from the ink
cassette’s ink sheet.
● When the ink cassette is empty, replace it
with a new one. An empty ink cassette
cannot be used. Do not try to rewind and
re-use cassette.
● Do not expose the paper to high tempera-
tures, high humidity and/or direct sunlight.
● You can write on one side a PV-50SFAU
print sheet.
● If you want to write something or stick a
stamp on a PV-50SFAU sheet, wait until
printing is finished. If you write something
or stick something on before printing, the
printer may not work properly.
● When writing on a PV-50SFAU print sheet,
be sure to use a pencil or an oil-based
writing utensil. If you apply too much
pressure, you’ll leave imprints on the print
sheet.
Storage
● Avoid storing prints in areas subject to high
temperatures or humidity, or near a heater
or heat-generating device.
● Do not store prints in a soft plastic folder.
Accelerated color fading may result due to
the chemical reaction, or the print(s) may
stick to the file.
● Do not store 2 prints with the printed sides
touching, as the sheets may stick together.
● Store print paper in its box, on a level
surface. Failure to do so may cause the print
paper to curl or bend, which can result in a
paper jam within the unit.
● Carefully read the precautions in the color
print paper sheet set box and on the back of
the color print paper sheet set before using.

When you are printing more than one sheet consecutively, the GV-PT2 may stop printing
midway temporarily to avoid paper jam due to static electricity. When making more than one
print, make sure that over 5 printed sheets do not accumulate in the output tray.
If you want to switch between the input image and the stored image ...
press SOURCE. Each time you press the button, the displayed image alternates between the
input image and the stored image. This function is not available during printing.
If you store the wrong image or store an image incorrectly ...
press SOURCE to call up the INPUT display, then find the correct image and store it in
memory. The incorrect image will be deleted and the new image be stored.
FRAME STABILIZER
With a “squeezed” video input signal, switching between ON/OFF of FRAME STABILIZER is
not available. Enter the pause mode on the video unit, make sure that there is no noise or
fluctuation on the frame and store the scene in memory.
If you want to print multiple copies of the same scene ...
select the number of print copies on the PRINTER MENU screen. You can select up to 25
copies (page 22). When printing two or more copies, you can press the CANCEL button on
the remote control unit at any time to stop print operation after finishing the currently
printing page. “Remaining sheets: 1” appears on the monitor screen.
To print a “live” image using a camcorder as the source ...
in step 4, instead of playing back the source tape, engage the camcorder’s Record mode.
