* PPM print speeds are based on the highest speed printer driver mode. Photo print
speeds are based on the default mode driver setting using Canon Photo Paper Plus
Glossy paper. Print speeds will vary depending on system configuration, interface,
software, document complexity, print mode, types of paper used and page coverage.
CPM copy speeds based on fast mode setting using plain paper. Copy speeds may vary
based on document complexity, copy mode, page coverage and number of copies.
** Resolution may vary based on printer driver setting. Color ink droplets can be placed
with a horizontal pitch of 1/4800 inch at minimum.
*** USB 2.0 Hi-Speed requires Windows XP, 2000 or Mac OS X operating systems. For
Windows 98, Me and Mac OS X v.10.2 to 10.2.6 operating systems, the printer will
operate at USB 1.1 specifications.
**** JPEG files 3MB or smaller only. Requires mobile phone with IrDA port and support
for IrMC version 1.1 protocol, with phone positioned no more than 7.9 inches from printer.
***** Bluetooth v1.2 with optional Canon Bluetooth Unit BU-20. Bluetooth operation
depends on the devices and software version used. Operating distance is approximately
10 meters but may vary due to obstacles, radio signals, locations where radio
interference occurs, magnetic fields from microwave ovens, device sensitivity and/or
antenna performance.
† System requirements vary by application.
†† ScanSoft OmniPage SE (OCR software) does not support Windows 98 first edition.
