Print Media Requirements2-1
2Paper Handling
This chapter describes the media you can use with this machine, how to load them, and where 
the documents come out.
Print Media Requirements
For high-quality copies, we recommend using paper and transparencies 
recommended by Canon.
Some types of paper available at office supply stores may not be suitable for this 
machine. If you have any questions about paper and transparencies, contact your 
local authorized Canon dealer or the Canon help line.
■Paper Storage
In order to prevent paper jams, follow this procedure below:
•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 Paper
Do not copy on the following types of copy 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 copy 
on the reverse side.)
•Paper which has been printed on using a thermal transfer printer (Do not copy on 
the reverse side.)
IMPORTANT
Never attempt to make copies on full-color transparencies. Doing so may result in 
machine malfunction.

■Acceptable Paper
* Only for the multi-purpose feeder.
IMPORTANT
Received faxes can only be printed on Letter, A4, B5, or A5 size paper loaded in the 
cassette. You cannot use paper loaded in the multi-purpose feeder to print a received fax 
regardless of paper size.
NOTE
•The printing speed may become slower than usual depending on the paper size, the 
paper type, and the number of sheets you specify.
This is because the machines safety function works to prevent the failure due to heat.
•Some types of paper may not feed properly into the cassette or the multi-purpose feeder.
Printing Areas
Please note that the term “printing area” represents both the recommended area 
for optimum print quality and the entire area where the machine can technically 
print from your computer.
Printing area (light shade): Canon recommends that you print within this area.

Copying areas are a little larger than printing areas.

Make sure the paper stack does not exceed the load limit mark (A) and it is loaded 
under the hooks (B) on the paper guides.
IMPORTANT
•Do not load different size and type of paper at the same time.
•Do not load extra paper when there is still paper left in the cassette. 
If you load extra paper while making copies, remove the loaded paper first.
Then put it together with the extra paper and tap the edges. After that, reload it in the 
cassette.
