Maintenance and Inspections
WARNING
•Turn the printer and computer off, disconnect the USB cable and remove the power 
plug from the wall when you are cleaning the printer. Failure to do so may cause fire 
or electrical shock.
•When cleaning the printing, always use a cloth dipped in plain water or water 
containing a mild soap solution and firmly wring the excess moisture out of the cloth 
before use. Do not use alcohol, benzene, thinners or any other inflammable 
substance. If an inflammable substance comes into contact with the electrical unit 
inside the printer it may ignite or cause an electrical shock.
•There is a high-voltage unit inside this product. When you are clearing paper jams or 
inspecting the interior of the printer, make sure that no necklaces, bracelets, or other 
metallic objects come into contact with the inside of the printer. If this does happen, it 
may cause burns or an electrical shock.
•Do not put spent toner cartridges into a fire. Any toner remaining in the toner 
cartridge may ignite, causing burns or fire.
•Unplug the power plug periodically and wipe away any dust or dirt that has built up 
around the power outlet. If the power plug is left connected for a long period of time 
in a dusty, humid, or smoky environment, dust that gathers around the power outlet 
will absorb moisture and reduce the effectiveness of the insulation, leading to fires.
CAUTION
•Never attempt to service this printer yourself, except as explained in this manual. 
There are no user serviceable parts inside the printer. Adjust only those controls that 
are covered in the operating instructions. Improper adjustment could result in 
personal injury and/or damage requiring extensive repair that may not be covered 
under your Limited Warranty.
•The area around the fixing unit inside the printer becomes hot during use. If you are 
inspecting the inside of the printer while you are clearing a paper jam, etc., take care 
not to touch the area around the fixing unit. Doing so can cause burns.
•Be careful to avoid staining your clothes or hands with toner while you are clearing a 
paper jam or replacing the toner cartridge. If you do get any toner on your clothes or 
hands, wash it off immediately with cold water. If you rinse using hot water the toner 
may become fixed, creating a stain that cannot be removed.
 
						

							xix
•When you are clearing jammed paper from inside the printer, remove the paper gently 
so that toner that is on the jammed paper does not spray out of the printer. This could 
lead to toner getting in your eyes or mouth. If toner gets into your eyes or mouth, 
wash it out immediately with cold water and consult a doctor.
•When loading paper or removing jammed paper, take care not to cut your hands with 
the edges of the paper.
•When removing a used toner cartridge from the toner cartridge slot, remove the 
cartridge carefully to prevent the toner from scattering and entering your eyes or 
mouth. If the toner enters your eyes or mouth, wash them immediately with cold 
water and immediately consult a physician.
Consumables
WARNING
•Do not put spent toner cartridges into a fire. The toner may ignite cause burns and 
fires.
•Do not store toner cartridges or paper in a location where there are open flames. 
Toner and paper could ignite, causing burns and fires.
CAUTION
Store toner cartridges and other consumables out of reach of infants. If toner from a 
toner cartridge is swallowed, seek medical attention immediately.
Other
WARNING
The toner cartridge produces a weak magnetic field. If someone who is using a 
pacemaker feels any unusual sensations, they should stay clear of the toner 
cartridge and seek medical attention immediately.

Printer Features
■High Performance Printing System CAPT
The LBP3000 is equipped with the latest CAPT (Canon Advanced Printing Technology) 
software that supports Windows OS. This system allows the data processing that is 
conventionally handled by the printer during printing to be batch processed by the 
computer, delivering high-speed printing that utilizes the full power of the computer. On 
top of this, the time taken until the computer is released has also been reduced, and 
printer information, such as paper out during printing, is displayed on the computer 
screen.
■USB 2.0 High Speed Installed as Standard
The LBP3000 is capable of high transmission speeds of up to 480 Mbps through an 
interface that features support for USB 2.0 High Speed.
■High Speed Printing and Super High Quality Printing
Delivers a high printing speed of 14 pages per minute. Relieves the stress of waiting for a 
print job to finish. This printer is fitted with a 600dpi laser printer engine. A stunningly high 
resolution of 2400 effective dpi x 600 dpi is made possible through the Automatic Image 
Refinement which is unique to Canon. Furthermore, because the grayscale makes use of 
a dithering pattern, photographs and graphics can be printed with beautifully subtle 
reproduction.
■Support for a Wide Variety of Networks
When used as a network printer, the printer status can be displayed on both the client and 
server computers. Job control can also be performed from either computer.
■Support for Various Types of Media
The LBP3000 supports plain paper, Index Card, envelopes (Envelope C5, Envelope 
COM10, Envelope DL, Envelope Monarch), label paper, transparencies and a variety of 
other paper. In addition, even though this is an A4 printer, A3 and B4 size documents can 
be printed reduced onto A4 paper using reduction mode. 
You can also print onto non-standard custom paper sizes.
■Low Power Consumption and Quick Startup
The revolutionary On-Demand Fixing Technology, which is exclusive to Canon, delivers 
both energy savings and quick startup. This technology means that the fixing heater is 
only heated up momentarily during printing, and so no time is needed to warm the printer 
up. As a result, you can always start printing directly from standby mode without any 
delay. Furthermore, the energy saving design delivers an average energy consumption in 
standby mode of a mere 2W.

■Compact and Silent Design
The compact design of the main printer body means that it can be used in the tiny spaces 
in the home or office.
The noise-reducing design delivers quiet operation even during printing. Because the 
printer is silent in standby mode, you can use it even in the middle of the night, without 
having to be concerned about those around you.
■Simple Maintenance and Printer Status Window
The toner cartridges made for this printer (Canon genuine part) are designed as a single 
part containing both toner and the light sensitive drum, so that they can be easily 
replaced.
The Printer Status Window that is displayed during printing makes it easy to tell exactly 
what the printer is doing through the use of graphical and audio cues, improving the 
overall usability of the printer.
