Setup guide for your PrintPeak Handheld Inkjet Printer

Read Instructions Carefully

Please ensure you read all instructions before using the printer.

Screen Calibration

Due to climatic and transportation reasons, the screen might need calibration. Use the touch pen to trigger the screen calibration procedure upon startup. Once calibrated, you can begin printing.

Ink Cartridge Care

• Do not touch the ink cartridge nozzle with water or wipe it with a wet towel. If the cartridge head is slightly clogged, clean it with our dust-free wipes and alcohol spray.
• Always turn off the printer before installing or removing the cartridge.
• If not in use for more than 25 minutes, remove the cartridge.
• After use, remove the ink cartridge and store it with the provided cartridge clip.

Printing Tips

• Adjust inkjet density for clarity.
• Maintain a 2-5mm printing distance for best results.
