z Media Types You Cannot Use
Do not use the following types of paper. Using such paper will not only produce unsatisfactory results, but can also cause the machine to jam or malfunction. Additionally, when printing on A5 or smaller sized paper, do not use paper thinner than a post card, including plain paper or notepad paper cut to a small size.
zFolded, curled, or wrinkled paper
zDamp paper
zPaper that is too thin (weighing less than 64 gsm / 17 lb)
zPaper that is too thick (non-Canon genuine paper weighing more than 105 gsm / 28 lb)
zPicture postcards
zPostcards affixed with photos or stickers

zEnvelopes with sticker flaps
zEnvelopes with an embossed or treated surface
zAny type of paper with holes
zPaper that is not rectangular
zPaper bound with staples or glue
zPaper with adhesives
zPaper decorated with glitter, etc.
z Photo Paper Pro Guidelines
zDo not touch the print surface until the ink is dry (approximately 30 minutes). Colors in dark images may appear indistinct at first, but will become clearer after approximately 30 minutes.
zImages may become smudged if you place printouts in an album before the ink is completely dry. We recommend to allow the ink to dry for 24 hours before placing your printouts in an album.
zDo not attempt to dry the ink with a hair dryer or by exposing printouts to direct sunlight.
zDo not store or display printouts in hot or humid conditions. Never expose them to heat or direct sunlight.
zStore printouts in photo albums, photo frames, or presentation binders to protect them from direct exposure to air or sunlight.
zDo not mount printouts in an adhesive-type album as you may not be able to remove them. Note that some types of clear plastic folders and albums may cause the edges of the paper to turn yellow.

Paper Source Selection Scenarios
Deciding on the usage of the two paper sources to print with minimum reloading of paper depends mainly on the variety of the type of paper you use regularly.
z If you print regularly on photo paper as well as on plain paper
If you use photo paper as much as plain paper, you can load photo paper in the Auto Sheet Feeder and plain paper in the Cassette. This way, you can switch the paper source according to the type of paper just by pressing the Paper Feed Switch.
You can also specify the type and size of paper to be fed from the Cassette using the printer driver. You can print more efficiently by specifying the type of paper you use regularly this way, since the paper source will be switched automatically to the Cassette for this paper.
Note
zSome types and sizes of paper are not loadable in the Cassette and requires the use of the Auto Sheet Feeder. See “Paper Handling” on page 8. For details on loading paper, see “Loading Paper” on page 16.
zFor details on printer driver settings, refer to the Printer Driver Guide on-screen manual.
(A)
(B)
(A)Auto Sheet Feeder: Load paper of various types and sizes, including photo paper.
(B)Cassette: Load paper you use most regularly, such as plain paper.

z If you print mainly on plain paper
You can load plain paper of the same size in both paper sources, and set the printer driver to automatically switch the paper source when either paper source runs out of paper during printing.
Note
