Loading Paper
This section describes how to load paper in the Auto Sheet Feeder and the Front Sheet Feeder.
Print Media to Avoid
Do not use the following types of paper. Using such paper will not only produce unsatisfactory results, but can also cause the printer to jam or malfunction.
• Folded, curled or wrinkled paper
• Damp paper
• Paper that is too thin (less than 64 gsm or 17 lb)
• Paper that is too thick* (more than 105 gsm or 28 lb)
*non-Canon branded paper
• Picture postcards
• Postcards with an affixed photo or sticker
• Envelopes with a double flap
• Envelopes with pressure seals
• Envelopes with an embossed or treated surface
• Paper with holes (such as Loose-leaf paper)
Using the Auto Sheet Feeder and the Front Sheet Feeder
You can load paper in the Auto Sheet Feeder and the Front Sheet Feeder.
When printing small quantities on various print media, loading paper in the Auto Sheet Feeder is easy and convenient.
Loading paper in the Front Sheet Feeder is suited for printing on paper of regular use. It is convenient when printing on the same type or a large amount of paper.
By combining the use of the Auto Sheet Feeder and the Front Sheet Feeder, the following ways of paper feeding are available.
• Changing the paper source to feed different types/sizes of paper
Changing the paper source according to the document size allows you to print without removing and reloading paper. To change the paper source, use the Paper Feed Switch on the printer or printer driver. You can also specify the type/size of paper to be fed from the Front Sheet Feeder with the printer driver. For example, you
3
Page 8
Basic Printing
can specify that a Letter paper is always fed from the Front Sheet Feeder whenever you print. So, it is convenient for regular use.
• Continuous printing on the same type/size of paper by using both the Auto Sheet Feeder and the Front Sheet Feeder together
When paper is loaded in both the Auto Sheet Feeder and the Front Sheet Feeder, you can choose to feed paper from whichever paper source you like. If the Auto Sheet Feeder or the Front Sheet Feeder runs out of paper, the paper source automatically switches to the other one. It is useful for printing a large amount of paper. To perform this feature you need to set the printer driver.

Note
• To maintain optimal print quality, use an ink tank within six months of its first use.
• Once an ink tank has been used, do not remove it from the printer and leave it out in the open. This will cause the ink tank to dry out and the printer may not function properly if it is reinstalled.
• Color ink consumption may occur even when black-and-white or gray scale printing is specified. Color ink is consumed in the head cleaning and deep cleaning, which are necessary to maintain the printer’s capabilities.
• When an ink tank runs out of ink, replace the ink tank with a new one immediately. If printing is continued with no ink in the ink tank, a problem may occur.

Resetting the Ink Counter
When an ink tank is replaced, the ink counter must be reset. The low ink warning is only displayed properly if the ink counter is reset.
Message Prompting Confirmation of Ink Tank Replacement
If a Front Cover is open for a certain period of time, the printer will output a message prompting you to confirm replacement of the ink tank at the start of the next print job. When an ink tank has been replaced, follow the procedure below to reset the ink counter. The low ink warning is only displayed properly if the ink counter is reset.
1 Check the message, and click Yes.
Mistakenly clicking NNo, instead, will prevent the low ink warning from functioning properly. If this happens, manually reset the ink counter in P box.

How Low Ink Warning Setting Works
The low ink warning notifies you of low ink levels during printing. The Low Ink Warning has been preset to be automatically displayed.
When you reset the ink counter, it will assume that the ink tank is full regardless of how much ink actually remains. The reset is the only way to match the counter value with an actual ink volume. Reset the ink counter when installing a new ink tank.

How to Display Low Ink Warning Correctly
• Reset the ink counter every time you install a new ink tank. The ink counter cannot work correctly unless you synchronize it with the actual ink
level. The ink counter can only be adjusted when it is reset at the time a new ink tank is installed.
• Do not reset the ink counter of an ink tank in use.
Synchronization of the counter and the actual ink level will not work properly.
Important If you did not reset the counter when you installed the current ink tanks,
the low ink warning may not function correctly, until the next time you replace the ink tanks. Also, be sure to treat both counters separately. Refer to "L page 70.
