Installing/Replacing the Toner Cartridge
The machine uses a Canon S35 Cartridge. The procedure on the next page explains how to install the cartridge for the first 
time, and how to replace it when the toner runs out.
When the message  appears, the toner in the cartridge may simply be unevenly distributed. 
Before replacing the cartridge, follow the instructions on p. 2-17 to evenly distribute the toner. If after doing this the 
message remains displayed or the print quality is low, replace the cartridge as described below.
NOTE
The S35-S is a starter cartridge that comes with your machine and yields approx. 2,500 page of printouts, while the S35 cartridge you 
purchase can yield approx. 3,500 page of printouts.
1Remove any documents and/or printed pages from the machine.
2Make sure the machine is plugged in.
3Remove the cartridge from the bag. Keep the bag in a safe place for future use.

Registering Required Sender Information
In the United States, FCC rules governing the use of facsimile equipment state that the following sender information must 
be printed on every facsimile transmission:
•Your fax number•Your personal name or company name
•The time and date of transmission
Your machine has been designed to print this information at the top of every fax you send. You must therefore register your 
machine’s telephone/fax number, your personal name or company name, and the current date and time before using your 
machine. This section gives details on registering your sender information.
What is Sender Information?
When you receive a fax, the name of the person or company who sent you the fax, their fax/telephone number, and the date 
and time of transmission will be printed in small type at the top of each page. This information is called the Sender 
information or the Transmit Terminal Identification (TTI). You must register your details in your machine so that whenever 
you send a fax, the other party knows who sent it, and when it was sent. Below is an example of how your sender 
information would print on a fax sent from your machine:
To enter the sender information in your machine, follow the procedures on the following pages.

							CHAPTER
Print Media Requirements4-1
4Paper Handling
This chapter describes how to select and prepare the print media for the different functions your machine can perform. 
Print Media Requirements
For high-quality printing, we recommend using paper and transparencies recommended by Canon. Some types of paper 
available at office supply stores may not be suitable for the machine. If you have any questions about paper and 
transparencies, contact the Canon Customer Care Center.
■Paper StorageIn order to prevent paper jams, do the following:
•To prevent moisture buildup, store remaining paper wrapped tightly in its original package. Store paper in a dry location, 
out of direct sunlight.
•To prevent curling, store paper flat, not upright.•If the paper is curled, uncurl it before loading it in the cassette or multi-purpose feeder. Failure to do so will cause paper 
creases and a paper jam.
■Unacceptable PaperDo not print on the following types of paper stock. Doing so may result in paper jams.
•Severely curled or wrinkled paper
•Transparencies designed for full-color copiers or printers•Paper which has already been copied using a digital full-color copier (Do not print on the reverse side.)•Paper which has been printed on using a thermal transfer printer (Do not print on the reverse side.)
IMPORTANT
Never attempt to print on full-color transparencies. Doing so may result in product malfunction.
