●To prevent paper jams, do not use any of the following:
– Wrinkled or creased paper
– Curled or rolled paper
– Coated paper
– Torn paper

– Very thin paper
– Paper which has been printed on using 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
– Shiny paper
●Make sure the paper is free from dust, lint, and oil stains.
●Be sure to test paper before purchasing large quantities.
●Store all paper wrapped and on a flat surface until ready for use. Keep opened packs 
in their original packaging in a cool, dry location.
●Store paper at 64.4°F–75.2°F (18°C–24°C), 40%–60% relative humidity.
●Use only transparencies designed for laser printers. Canon recommends you use 
Canon type transparencies with this machine.
