Preparing the camera
To prepare the camera to take passport or ID photos:
1 Plug the AC power cord into the back of the camera and
into a wall outlet. The camera will power up.
The display shows one of two messages. If there is film in
the camera, the display reads “Wait” for a warm-up pe-
riod of about 15 seconds, then it reads Ready. If there is
no film in the camera, the message reads Load Film.
2 If necessary, load film into the camera. Refer to Chapter
2, Loading film for detailed instructions.
3 Place your subject in a chair against the backdrop. For
best results, position the subject as close to the backdrop
as possible. Remember, passport photos require a white
background. For questions regarding passport specifica-
tions and techniques, call toll-free: 1-800-343-5000.
Note: For passport photos, move the aiming light selector
to “PP”; for ID photos, set the selector to “ID”. Refer to the
section The camera, in e selev0t 3e
