Important safety instructions

Read these safety instructions thoroughly before using your fax.

Except as specifically described in this guide, do not attempt to service the fax yourself. Never attempt to disassemble the fax: opening and removing its interior covers will expose you to

dangerous voltages and other risks. For all service, contact your local authorised Canon dealer or the Canon help line.

■ Handling and maintenance

• Follow all warnings and instructions marked on the fax.

• Do not subject the fax to strong physical shock or vibration.

• Always unplug the fax before moving or cleaning it.

• To avoid paper jams, never unplug the power cord, open the printer cover, or remove paper from

the multi-purpose tray while printing.

• When transporting the fax, leave the BJ cartridge installed in the cartridge holder and tape the

cartridge holder to the right side of the fax. This will prevent ink spilling inside the fax.

• Always lift the fax as shown below. Never lift it by any of its attachments.

• Do not push objects of any kind into the slots or openings on the cabinet as they may touch

dangerous voltage points or short out parts. This could result in fire or electric shock.

• Do not allow small objects (such as pins, paper clips, or staples) to fall into the fax. If something

does fall into the fax, unplug it immediately and contact your local authorised Canon dealer or the Canon help line.

• To avoid spillage in or around the fax, do not eat or drink near it. If you spill liquid or if any

substance falls into the fax, unplug the fax immediately and contact your local authorised Canon dealer or the Canon help line.

• Keep the fax clean. Dust accumulation can prevent the fax from operating properly.

• Unplug the fax from the wall outlet and refer service to qualified personnel under the following

conditions:

– When the power cord or plug is damaged or frayed. – If liquid has spilled into the fax. – If the fax has been exposed to rain or water. – If the fax does not operate normally when you have followed the instructions in this guide.

Adjust only those controls that are covered by the instructions in this guide. Improper adjustment of other controls may result in damage and may require extensive work by a qualified technician to restore the product to normal operation.

– If the fax has been dropped or the cabinet has been damaged. – If the fax exhibits a distinct change in performance, indicating a need for servicing.

Important safety instructions

■ Location

• Place the fax on a flat, stable, vibration-free surface that is strong enough to support its weight

(approx. 5.8 kg).

• Place the fax in a cool, dry, clean, well ventilated place.

– Make sure the area is free from dust. – Make sure the location is not affected by extreme temperature changes, and always stays

between 10° and 32.5°C.

– Make sure the area’s relative humidity is always between 20% and 85%.

• Keep the fax away from direct sunlight as this can damage it. If you have to place it near a

window, install heavy curtains or blinds.

• Do not use the fax near water. Make sure that no wet or humid objects come into contact with the fax.

• Do not use or store the fax outdoors.

• Do not install the fax near devices that contain magnets or generate magnetic fields, such as speakers.

• If possible, place the fax near an existing telephone outlet to avoid the expense of installing a new one.

• Place the fax near a standard 200–240 V AC power outlet.

• To ensure reliable operation of the fax and to protect it from overheating (which can cause it to

operate abnormally and create a fire risk), do not block the exhaust vent and never block or cover any openings on the fax by placing it on a bed, sofa, rug, or other similar surface. Do not place the fax in a cupboard or built-in installation, or near a radiator or other heat source unless proper ventilation is provided. Install the fax approximately 10 cm away from walls and other equipment. For the dimensions of the fax, see p. S-1.

• Do not stack boxes or furniture around the power outlet. Keep the area free so you can reach the

outlet quickly. If you notice anything unusual (smoke, strange odours, noises) around the fax, unplug it immediately. Contact your local authorised Canon dealer or the Canon help line.

• Do not allow anything to rest on the power cord, and do not place the fax where the cord will be

walked on. Make sure the cord is not knotted or kinked.

■ Power supply

• During electrical storms, disconnect the power cord from the power outlet. (Please note that any

documents stored in the fax’s memory will be deleted when you unplug the fax.)

• Whenever you unplug the fax, wait at least five seconds before you plug it in again.

• If dust accumulates around the plug of the power cord when it is connected to a power outlet,

unplug the fax and wipe the plug with a clean, dry cloth.

This product emits low level magnetic flux. If you use a cardiac pacemaker and feel abnormalities, please move away from this product and

consult your doctor.

Installing the BJ cartridge

The first time you set up your fax, you have to install the BJ cartridge before you can begin receiving and copying documents.

For information on replacing the BJ cartridge, see p. 10-8.

Guidelines _____________________________________

Follow these guidelines to ensure optimum performance of your BJ cartridge.

• Use only a Canon BX-20 Black BJ cartridge in your fax.

• Store BJ cartridges at room temperature.

• Keep BJ cartridges in their packaging until you are ready to use them. This is to prevent the BJ

cartridge from drying out.

• Replace BJ cartridges after one year of use.

• Never remove the BJ cartridge unless you are going to replace it. When left exposed, the cartridge

print head dries out, making it unusable.

• To change a BJ cartridge, be sure to press [Cartridge] (on the operation panel) to move the cartridge holder to the centre.

• Make sure the cartridge holder is in its home position (on the right side of the fax) when you are not using the fax. If it is not in its home position, press [Cartridge]. Leaving the cartridge holder out of its home position will cause the BJ cartridge to remain uncapped and dry out.

• Store BJ cartridges out of the reach of

Loading paper

Selecting the right kind of paper ______________

The quality of the paper you use affects the print quality of the fax. Using paper that meets the following guidelines will ensure the best possible printing results.

Paper guidelines _______________________________

• Be sure to load paper of the correct size, weight, and quantity recommended for your fax. (see p. 4-2)

• Store all paper wrapped and on a flat surface until ready to use. Keep opened packs in their original packaging, in a cool, dry location.

• Store paper at 18°–24°C, 40%–60% relative humidity.

• To avoid paper jams and poor print quality, do not print on damp, curled, wrinkled, or torn paper.

• Use cut-sheet paper only, not paper that comes on a roll.

• Use only paper that has a thickness of between 0.08 and 0.13 mm. Thick paper may damage the BJ

cartridge print head.

• Do not load paper beyond the paper limit mark (P) or beyond the tab on the multi-purpose tray. Doing so may cause problems. Also, make sure there are no gaps on either side of the paper stack.

Paper limit mark

No gaps here

• The capacity of the output tray is 50 sheets of paper. To prevent paper jams, remove paper from the output tray before the count reaches 50.

• Let the paper run out before refilling the multi-purpose tray. Avoid mixing new stock with paper already loaded.

• Do not leave paper stacked in the multi-purpose tray for long periods of time since it may bend or curl and cause problems.

• Certain environmental conditions, such as extreme temperatures or humidity, can cause some paper to misfeed in the multi-purpose tray. If you have trouble, feed one sheet at a time.

• Depending on the density of the printed pages, the ink may need time to dry. Within two or three seconds, the ink becomes smudge resistant. After drying for several minutes, the ink becomes water-resistant.

• If your printed page contains a large amount of graphics, the ink on the page may be damp due to the print density. Leave the page in the output tray for 30 to 60 seconds to allow the ink to dry. Then remove the page carefully without touching any surfaces.

• If paper curls after printing, remove it immediately; otherwise paper jams may occur.

• The platen (a roller inside the fax) may become inked if you print data beyond the width of the

page. If this happens, clean inside the fax. (see p. 10-4)

Loading paper

Loading paper in the multi-purpose tray_______

Follow the procedure below to load paper in the multi-purpose tray.

Make sure the paper thickness lever is

set to m (left).

• Do not set the paper thickness lever

while the fax is printing since this will cause problems.

• The paper thickness lever should always be set to m (left) for the best printing results.

Fan the stack of paper that you want to feed into the fax. Then tap the edge of the stack on a flat surface to even the stack.

Raise the paper rest until it stops q, then

move the paper guide to the left to match the size of your paper w.

Insert the stack into the multi-purpose

tray q, and align the right edge of the stack with the right side of the multipurpose tray. Then slide the paper guide snugly against the left edge of the stack w.

SETTING UP

• The multi-purpose tray holds up to 100 sheets of 75 g/m2 plain paper.

• Make sure the stack does not exceed the paper limit mark (P).

Testing the fax _________________________________

After you have assembled the fax, installed the BJ cartridge, and loaded the paper, you can make sure the fax is printing properly by making several copies of a document. (see p. 5-2)

If you have problems printing, see Chapter 10.
