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.

z Folded, curled, or wrinkled paper

z Damp paper

z Paper that is too thin (weighing less than 64 gsm / 17 lb)

z Paper that is too thick (non-Canon genuine paper weighing more than 105 gsm / 28 lb)

z Paper that is not rectangular

z Paper bound with staples or glue

z Paper with adhesives

z Photo Paper Pro Guidelines

z Do 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.

z Images 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.

z Do not attempt to dry the ink with a hair dryer or by exposing printouts to direct sunlight.

z Do not store or display printouts in hot or humid conditions. Never expose them to heat or

direct sunlight.

z Store printouts in photo albums, photo frames, or presentation binders to protect them from

direct exposure to air or sunlight.

z Do 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.

 Using Specialty Media

Canon recommends that you use Canon genuine media to ensure optimal print quality.

Note

z For details on the specialty media Canon provides for use with its various printers, refer to

“Printing Media” in the User’s Guide on-screen manual.

z For detailed instructions on how to load specialty media into the machine, refer to “Printing

When Printing on Plain Paper

z You can use general copy paper or Canon’s Super White Paper. When printing on both sides,

we recommend Canon’s Super White Paper Double-Sided. Paper size: – Standard sizes: A4, B5, A5 (Auto Sheet Feeder only), Letter, and Legal (Auto Sheet Feeder

only)

– Non-standard sizes for the Auto Sheet Feeder: 2.13" x 3.39" to 8.5" x 23" / 54.0 x 86.0 mm to

215.9 x 584.2 mm

Paper weight: 17 to 28 lb / 64 to 105 gsm

the Auto Sheet Feeder and up to 110 sheets of plain paper (17 lb / 64 gsm, 0.39 inches / 10 mm in height) in the Front Feeder. However, proper feeding of paper may not be possible at this maximum capacity depending on the type of paper or environmental conditions (either very high or low temperature and humidity). In such cases, reduce the sheets of paper you load at a time to around half (around 0.2 inches / 5 mm in paper stack height).

z Do not stack more than 50 sheets in the Paper Output Tray.

When Printing on 5" x 7", 4" x 6", or 2.13" x 3.39" (Credit Card-sized) paper
