Troubleshooting
Cannot connect via Wi-Fi
Try restarting SELPHY. If a connection still cannot be established, check the settings
of the access point or other device for the Wi-Fi connection.
If connection via [WPS Connection] is not possible, try connecting by using [Search
for an access point] (
=
39
) or [Manual Settings] (
=
41
).
Can connect to access point, but cannot print
Remove any inserted memory cards or USB flash drives.
Printing is not possible when the printer is already printing a job from another device,
or when the printer is connected to a camera.
When printing from a smartphone, install Canon Easy-PhotoPrint (
=
31
).
Confirm that the camera, smartphone, or computer you are printing from is connected
to the same access point as SELPHY.
Check the access point password and try to connect again (
=
41
).
If a message is displayed after you enter the correct password and press the <
o

button (
=
41
), confirm that DHCP server functionality is enabled on the access
point, and make sure connection settings on SELPHY such as the IP address are
correct (
