SELPHY CP1500 What is the L adapter?

cargo26 — Fri, 02 Jan 2026 15:10:35 GMT

In another post about the Selphy, the solution content mentions that the paper cassette that comes with the printer does have an adapter that can be used when loading L-size paper (label size). "The manual instructs you to remove that adapter when loading post-card size paper. However, if you purchase an ink/paper set that contains L size paper, you will need to put that adapter back on."

Can someone share what this looks like? I don't see it.-- OR, is it the small plastic panel sitting in the tray at the bottom--where the paper goes? If so, can someone explain how to do so without breaking it, and how the small paper (which I need to get) is placed in it? If something different, please show a picture.

And lastly (for now)--can someone show a picture of this paper cassette? Paper Cassette PCC-CP400.

Thanks!

So I just got information that the Card Size Paper Cassette PCC-CP400 is now available. I think this is what I need to be able to print the smaller pictures, correct? And then I that I will need to purchase a different set of paper (sticker/card size) . . . but it seems to also come with ink. So, my question is (as I've really just printed one or two things with the postcard size paper as it's been a hectic couple of months), what do I need to do when I want to switch between the picture size? Thanks for clarifying . . . I presume it's pretty simple, but could someone confirm this? Thank you!
