Connection of the equipment
This equipment complies with Part 68 of the FCC rules and the requirements adopted by the
ACTA. On the rear panel of this equipment is a label that contains, among other information, a
product identifier in the format US:AAAEQ##TXXXX. If requested, this number must be
provided to the telephone company.
The REN is used to determine the number of devices that may be connected to a telephone line.
Excessive RENs on a telephone line may result in the devices not ringing in response to an
incoming call. In most but not all areas, the sum of RENs should not exceed five (5.0). To be
certain of the number of devices that may be connected to a line, as determined by the total
RENs, contact the local telephone company. The REN for this product is part of the product
identifier that has the format US:AAAEQ##TXXXX. The digits represented by ## are the REN
without a decimal point (e.g., 03 is a REN of 0.3).
This equipment may not be used on coin service provided by the telephone company.
Connection to party lines is subjected to state tariffs.
In case of equipment malfunction
Should any malfunction occur which cannot be corrected by the procedures described in this
guide, disconnect the equipment from the telephone line or turn off the power and unplug the
power cord. The telephone line should not be reconnected or the power cord plugged in until
the problem is completely resolved. Users should contact Canon Authorized Service Facilities
for servicing of equipment. Information regarding Authorized Service Facility locations can be
obtained by calling the Canon Customer Care Center. (1-800-423-2366)
Rights of the telephone company

Introduction
IMPORTANT
• To prevent the printhead from drying up, the machine automatically caps it when the power is
turned off with the [ON/OFF (1 sec.)] key. If you need to disconnect the machine from the main
power source (e.g. disconnect the power cord), be sure to turn off the machine first by pressing
[ON/OFF (1 sec.)] before disconnecting it.
• If you are not using the machine for a long period of time, we recommend that you print (in black
and color) or clean the printhead approximately once a month to maintain the printhead in good
working condition. The printhead contains high-precision nozzles that will become blocked if the
printhead is not used for a long period of time.
NOTE
• The power cannot be turned off when the machine is operating or when the In Use/Memory
light is on or blinking.
• Your machine performs printhead cleaning every time you turn on the machine. This ensures optimum
print quality, but also consumes a small amount of ink during the cleaning process. For this reason, it is
recommended that you always leave your machine turned on, and only turn it off when instructed to do
so in this guide, or when not using the machine for a long period of time (one month or more). This will
avoid unnecessary ink consumption.

General print media guidelines
• Print media you cannot use:
–Folded print media
–Curled print media
–Creased print media
–Moist print media
–Very thin print media (less than 17 lb. or 64 g/m2)
–Very thick print media (more than 28 lb. or 105 g/m2)
–Print media with holes (e.g. punched holed)
–Envelopes with double flaps
–Envelopes with pressure seals
–Envelopes made with embossed or treated surfaces
• Hold the print media as closely as possible to its edges and try not to touch the printing
surface. Printing quality will deteriorate if the printing surface is damaged or becomes dirty.
• Do not touch the printing surface until the ink has dried.
• Some print media may curl and the printing surface may smudge if you have used a large
amount of ink for printing. If this occurs, move the paper thickness lever to the right ( p. 3-5).
Paper that tends to curl is not recommended for printing photographs or graphics. Use for
printing mainly text.
• Do not use print media that is in bad condition ( above). If the print media is curled, uncurl
it before printing.
• Place the print media you have not used back into its packet and store out of direct sunlight
in a place where temperature and humidity is low.
• Photo Paper Pro guidelines:
–Do not touch the printed surface until the ink is fixed (approx. 30 minutes). Colors in dark
images may appear indistinct at first, but will become clearer after about 30 minutes.
–Images may smudge if you place them in an album before the ink is completely dry. It is
recommended that you allow the ink to dry for 24 hours.
–Do not attempt to dry the ink with a hairdryer or by exposing printed sheets to direct
sunlight.
3-4Print media handlingChapter 3
–Do not store or display printouts in hot, damp, or humid conditions. Never expose them to
heat or direct sunlight.
–Store printouts in photo albums, photo frames, or presentation binders to protect them from
direct exposure to air or sunlight.
–Do not mount printouts in an adhesive-type album as you may not be able to remove them.
–Be aware that some types of clear plastic folders and albums may cause the edges of the
paper to turn yellow.
