    „Paper Handling
    zRecommended Paper and Requirements
    *1  Paper with a Model Number is Canon specialty media. Refer to the instruction manual 
    supplied with the paper for detailed information on the printable side and notes on handling 
    paper. For information on the paper sizes available for each Canon genuine paper, visit our 
    website. You may not be able to purchase some Canon genuine papers depending on the 
    country or region of purchase. Paper is not sold in the US by Model Number. Purchase 
    paper by name.
    *
    2  Proper feeding of paper may not be possible at the 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).

    							12Before Using the Machine
    *4  Feeding this paper from the Front Tray can damage the machine. Load in the Rear Tray.
    *5  When loading paper in stacks, the print side may be marked as it is fed in or sheets may be 
    stuck to one another causing them not to be fed properly. In this case, load one sheet at a 
    time.
    *
    6  We recommend that you remove the previously printed sheet from the Paper Output Tray 
    before continuously printing to avoid blurs and discoloration.
    *
    7  This paper cannot be used in Macintosh®.
    *8  When copying onto sticker paper, be sure to select Sticker Copy in the Copy mode. Refer to 
    “Copying on Stickers (Sticker Copy)” in “Using Useful Copy Functions” of the User’s Guide 
    on-screen manual. 
    When printing photos saved in a memory card to sticker paper, be sure to select Sticker 
    print in the Memory card mode. Refer to “Printing on Stickers (Sticker Print)” in “Using Other 
    Useful Printing Functions” of the User’s Guide on-screen manual.
    zMedia 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.
    zFolded, curled, or wrinkled paper
    zDamp paper
    zPaper that is too thin (weighing less than 17 lb / 64 gsm)
    zPaper that is too thick (plain paper, except for Canon genuine paper, weighing more than 28 
    lb / 105 gsm)
    zPicture postcards
    zPostcards affixed with photos or stickers
    zAny type of paper with holes
    zPaper that is not rectangular

    sunlight.
    zDo not touch the printed surface nor stack the printed sheets until the ink is fixed.
    Note
    For a detailed description of printing media types, refer to “Printing Media” in the User’s Guide on-
    screen manual.

    Before Using the Machine
    „ Paper Sources
    This machine offers two paper sources to load printing paper; the Rear Tray (A) and the Front Tray 
    (B).
    „Changing the Paper Source
    Each time you press the  Feed Switch button, the paper source to be used switches between the 
    Rear Tray and the Front Tray. The paper feeds from the paper source whose lamp is lit.
    (A)  Rear Tray  lamp
    (B)  Feed Switch  button
    (C)  Front Tray  lamp
    Note
    zYou cannot load paper other than A4, Letter, or B5-sized plain paper in the Front Tray. When using any 
    other type of paper, load it in the Rear Tray. For details on loading paper, see “Loading Paper” on 
    page 14. 
    z Printer driver settings may be required depending on the usage. For details on printer driver settings, 
    refer to the  PC Printing Guide  on-screen manual.
    Important
    When Printing from Your Computer
    If a setting other than  Paper Feed Switch is selected for Paper Source in the printer driver, the  Feed 
    Switch  button on the machine will be disabled and the printer driver settings takes precedence when 
    printing. Confirm the setting in the printer driver. See “Printing with Windows” on page 32 or “Printing with 
    Macintosh” on page 33. For details on paper source selection using the printer driver, refer to the  PC 
    Printing Guide  on-screen manual.
    Paper Source for Fax Printouts
    To print out received faxes, the machine uses the Front Tray by default, regardless of the source selected 
    by the  Feed Switch  button. The paper source used to print out faxes can be specified in the  FAX pape r 
    source  setting in the Operation Panel. See “Changing the Print Settings” on page 70.

    „Loading Paper
    z Loading Paper in the Rear Tray
    1Flatten the four corners of  the paper before loading it.
    ImportantzLoad A4, Letter, or Legal-sized plain paper when receiving faxes. Legal-sized paper can only be loaded 
    in the Rear Tray.
    z If you cut plain paper to 4 x 6 / 101.6 x 152.4 mm, 5 x 7 / 127.0 x 177.8 mm, or 2.13 x 3.39 / 54.0 x 
    86.0 mm (credit card-size) for a trial print, it can cause paper jams.
    z You cannot print on postcards affixed with photos or stickers.
    z Always load paper in portrait orientation (A). Loading paper in landscape orientation (B) can cause the 
    paper to be jammed.
    Note
    zWe 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 10.
    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 (Rear Tray only), Letter, and Legal (Rear Tray only)
    – Non-standard sizes for the Rear Tray: 2.13 x 3.39 inches to 8.5 x 23 inches / 54.0 x 86.0 mm to 215.9 
    x 584.2 mm
    Paper weight: 17 to 28 lb / 64 to 105 gsm (non-Canon genuine plain paper)
    Notez 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 109.
    z To avoid curling, handle paper as follows.
    – When you do not print, remove unused paper from the Rear Tray, put them back into the 
    package, and keep it on a level surface.
    – Take out only the necessary number of sheets from the package, just before printing.
