    Loading Paper
    This section describes how to load paper in the Auto Sheet Feeder and the Front Sheet 
    Feeder.
    „Print Media to Avoid
    Do not use the following types of paper. Using such paper will not only produce 
    unsatisfactory results, but can also cause the printer to jam or malfunction.
    • Folded, curled or wrinkled paper
    • Damp paper
    • Paper that is too thin (less than 64 gsm or 17 lb)
    • Paper that is too thick* (more than 105 gsm or 28 lb)
    *non-Canon branded paper
    • Picture postcards
    • Postcards with an affixed photo or sticker
    • Envelopes with a double flap
    • Envelopes with pressure seals
    • Envelopes with an embossed or treated surface
    • Paper with holes (such as Loose-leaf paper)
    „Using the Auto Sheet Feeder and the Front Sheet Feeder
    You can load paper in the Auto Sheet Feeder and the Front Sheet Feeder.
    When printing small quantities on various print media, loading paper in the Auto Sheet 
    Feeder is easy and convenient.
    Loading paper in the Front Sheet Feeder is suited for printing on paper of regular use. It 
    is convenient when printing on the same type or a large amount of paper.
    By combining the use of the Auto Sheet Feeder and the Front Sheet Feeder, the 
    following ways of paper feeding are available.
    • Changing the paper source to feed different types/sizes of paper
    Changing the paper source according to the document size allows you to print 
    without removing and reloading paper. To change the paper source, use the Paper 
    Feed Switch on the printer or printer driver. You can also specify the type/size of 
    paper to be fed from the Front Sheet Feeder with the printer driver. For example, you 
    QSG_Basic.fm  Page 3  Wednesday, May 19, 2004  5:30 PM 
    						
    							Basic Printing
    4
    can specify that a Letter paper is always fed from the Front Sheet Feeder whenever 
    you print. So, it is convenient for regular use.
    • Continuous printing on the same type/size of paper by using both the Auto Sheet 
    Feeder and the Front Sheet Feeder together
    When paper is loaded in both the Auto Sheet Feeder and the Front Sheet Feeder, you 
    can choose to feed paper from whichever paper source you like. If the Auto Sheet 
    Feeder or the Front Sheet Feeder runs out of paper, the paper source automatically 
    switches to the other one. It is useful for printing a large amount of paper. To 
    perform this feature you need to set the printer driver.
    „Loading Paper in the Auto Sheet Feeder
    1Flatten the four corners of the paper before loading it.
    NoteFor detailed description of the printer driver setting, see "UUsing the Auto 
    Sheet Feeder and the Front Sheet Feeder" in the 
    User’s Guide.
    Note• For detailed information on the speciality media Canon provides for 
    use with its various printers, refer to the section "U
    Using Speciality 
    Media"on page 11.
    • See "P
    Printing Media" in the User’s Guide for detailed instructions on 
    how to load envelopes and speciality media into the printer.
    ImportantWhen paper is curled, hold the opposing curled corners and gently bend 
    them in the opposite direction until the paper becomes completely flat.
