Loading the printer paper
Use the pull tab to open the paper compartment. Insert the roll of thermal printer paper (57mm x 25mm) into the paper compartment, ensuring the roll is facing the same direction as shown in the image below (rolling under then back from above).
Fit the roll so some of the paper is feeding out through the slot, then close the paper compartment and tear off the excess paper exposed on the outside.

Installing MicroSD card
The SD card slot is below the safety cover at the top of the camera. This device will not work with a card above 32GB capacity. To eject the card, push inward.
Charging the camera
Insert a USB-C cable into the charging port at the top of the camera (below the safety cover), and connect the other end to a USB power adapter (5V/2A). Once power is connected, the camera will begin charging.
The indicator light is Red while charging is in progress, and will turn off when fully charged. The camera will give a low battery prompt when further charging is required.
Powering on
Once fully charged, press the Power button once to turn the camera on. By default, it will start in Photo mode, with the rear lens.

• Press the Playback button to view recorded videos. Press the Shutter button to play the video in the Playback menu.

Filters
Press the Up/Down buttons to cycle through different filter options. Filters overlay a fun scene or border to your image, with different options available between the front and rear cameras. To quickly return to the default (no filter) option, press the Front/Rear Lens switch button twice, to swap quickly back to the current lens with no filter.
Note that while the full color of the scenes/filters will be saved to the SD card (and exportable to other devices in this format), the printer will only print in black and white.

Delete

• Press the Settings button to bring up the Delete option. Use the Up/Down buttons to select ‘OK’ or ‘Cancel’.
• Press OK button while ‘OK ’ is selected to delete the selected image or video.

Slide the Reset switch to ‘OFF’, then slide back to ‘ON’ before pressing the power button to turn the camera back on. If the switch is left set to ‘OFF’, it will not turn on.

SETTINGS

To access the settings menu, press the Settings button .
Use the Up/Down buttons to navigate the different menu options, and press the OK button
to enter the selected submenu to edit the settings. Press the OK button to confirm the selection and exit the submenu.
To exit without saving, press the Playback button .
Print shade
Select from High, Medium or Low to adjust the depth of the print-outs. The low setting has a lighter printout, High setting is darker.
Resolution
Select between HD (high definition) or FHD (Full high definition) for the recording resolution.
The higher the resolution, the more space on the memory card this will use.
Delay photo
Also known as an auto-timer or self-timer, this allows the user to set a delay between when the Shutter button is pressed and when the photo is taken. Select between 3 seconds,
5 seconds, or 10 seconds. To disable it, select Off.
Three photos
Also known as burst shots, this takes and saves 3 photos within approximately 2 seconds.
Cyclic record
This setting applies to video mode only. When enabled, this allows videos to continuously record while saving as short clips. Select between 3-minute, 5-minute, or 10-minute intervals. When the video is recorded, the device will automatically save the current video and begin recording the next once the selected time has passed. This is ideal for recording long videos indefinitely, without needing to manually stop and save clips. It also ensures smaller, easier-to-manage files rather than one long clip.
Scene
Scenes will overlay a color across the image, allowing for enhanced detail in low-light and sunny conditions. Select between Auto (default), Sunlight, Cloudy, Tungsten, or Fluorescent. Filters can be applied over scene settings.
Purikura
“ Purikura” refers to the Filters, as described in the Operation section. Here they can be set manually, as a list from 1 – 35.
Photo zoom
When enabled, the rear-facing camera will be set in zoom mode, allowing items further in distance to be seen from the lens.
Date tag
When enabled, this will save the current date and time onto the photo as it is taken. Date tags cannot be added or removed from photos that have already been taken. To adjust the date and time information, refer to Time Setting option.
Beep sound
Select the volume of the buttons/functions. Choose between high volume, low volume or off (silent) options.
LED flash
Set the mode for the camera’s rear-facing flash/light, selecting between Off, On, or Always On. Always On allows the light to stay on as long as the camera is powered on, even when not taking photos or video.
Time
Set the device’s year/month/day/time data.
Auto Power Off
When set, the camera will automatically power down after not being used for the set time (select between 3, 5 or 10 minutes). Set to ‘Off’ to disable this, but note that the battery life will be shorter if left on.
