 To prevent paper jams, do not use the following types of 
paper. 
 Wrinkled or creased paper 
 Curled or rolled paper 
 Torn  paper 
 Damp  paper 
 Very thin paper 
 Paper printed with a thermal transfer printer (Do not copy on the 
reverse side.) 
 The following types of paper do not print well: 
 Highly textured paper 
 Very smooth paper 
 Glossy  paper 
 Make sure the paper is free from dust, lint, and oil stains. 
 Make sure to test paper before purchasing large quantities. 
 Store all paper wrapped and on a fl   at surface until ready 
for use. Keep opened packs in their original packaging in a 
cool, dry location. 
Store paper at 64.4 to 75.2°F (18 to 24°C), 40 % to 60 % RH.

    CAUTION  
 If you print on damp paper 
 The following problems may occur. 
 Steam is emitted from the printer output area. 
 Water droplets form on the back side of the operation panel and 
in the output area. 
 Because moisture in the paper is evaporating due to the heat 
generated when toner fi xes, this is not a malfunction. ( This is likely to 
occur when the room temperature is low.) 
 If you smell a burnt odor, however, immediately turn OFF the machine, 
unplug the power plug from the AC power outlet, and then contact 
your local authorized Canon dealer or the Canon help line. Continued 
use can result in a fi re or electrical shock.  •

   Precautions  when  Loading  Paper 
 
    CAUTION  
 Be careful when handling paper 
 Handle paper carefully not to cut your hands with the edges of the 
paper.  
 Precautions when inserting the paper cassette 
 Be careful not to catch your fi ngers.     
    IMPORTANT 
 Be sure to align the paper guides with the width of the 
paper. 
   If the paper guides are too loose or too tight, this may result in 
misfeeds or paper jams.  
 When using paper that has been poorly cut 
   If you use paper that has been poorly cut, multiple sheets of paper may be fed at once. In this case, fan the paper thoroughly, and then 
align the edges of the stack properly on a hard, fl at surface.  
 Do not exceed the load limit mark when loading paper. 
   Make sure that the paper stack does not exceed the line of the load limit mark. If the paper stack exceeds the load limit mark lines, this 
may result in misfeeds.  
 When printing on envelopes 
   Load envelopes with the front side (non-glued side) facing up. You cannot print on the reverse side of envelopes.  
Also, be sure to close the fl ap before loading envelopes.
 If Index Card is curled 
   Bend it in the opposite direction to fl atten it before loading.
