Before Using the Printer

„

Loading Paper

1

Flatten the four corners of the paper before loading it.

Important

z

You cannot print on postcards affixed with photos or stickers.

z

Always load paper in portrait orientation (A). Loading paper in landscape orientation (B) can

cause the paper to be jammed.

Note

z

We recommend using genuine Canon photo media when printing photographs. For details on

the specialty media Canon provides for use with its various printers, see “Using Specialty

Media” on page 8.

When Printing on Plain Paper
z

You can use general copy paper or Canon’s Super White Paper. When printing on both sides,

we recommend Canon’s Super White Paper Double-Sided.
Paper size:
– Standard sizes: A4, B5, A5, Letter, and Legal
– Non-standard sizes: 2.13 x 3.39 inches to 8.5 x 23 inches / 54.0 x 86.0 mm to 215.9 x 584.2

mm

Paper weight: 17 to 28 lb / 64 to 105 gsm (non-Canon genuine plain paper)

z

If you cut plain paper to 4" x 6" / 101.6 x 152.4 mm, 5" x 7" / 127.0 x 177.8 mm, or 2.13" x 3.39"

/ 54.0 x 86.0 mm (credit card-size) for a trial print, it can cause paper jams.

z

100% recycled paper can be used.

Note

z

Align the edges of paper neatly before loading. Loading paper without aligning the edges may

cause paper jams.

z

If paper is curled, hold the opposing curled corners and gently bend them in the opposite

direction until the paper becomes completely flat. See “Paper is curled.” on page 49.

z

To avoid curling, handle paper as follows.

– Put unused paper back into the package and keep them on a level surface.

– Take out only the necessary number of sheets from the package, just before printing.
