(A) (B)

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 12.

When Printing on Plain Paper

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

1 Flatten the four corners of the paper before loading it.

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 64.

z To avoid curling, handle paper as follows.
