    z Photo Paper Pro Guidelines
    zDo not touch the print surface until the ink is  dry (approximately 30 minutes). Colors in dark 
    images may appear indistinct at first, but will  become clearer after approximately 30 minutes.
    z Images may become smudged if you place printouts in an album before the ink is completely 
    dry. We recommend to allow the ink to dry for 24 hours before placing your printouts in an 
    album. 
    z Do not attempt to dry the ink with a hair dryer  or by exposing printouts to direct sunlight.
    z Do not store or display printouts in hot or  humid conditions. Never expose them to heat or 
    direct sunlight.
    z Store printouts in photo albums, photo frames, or  presentation binders to protect them from 
    direct exposure to air or sunlight. 
    z Do not mount printouts in an adhesive-type album  as you may not be able to remove them. 
    Note that some types of clear plastic folder s and albums may cause the edges of the paper to 
    turn yellow.
    „ Using Specialty Media
    Canon recommends that you use Canon genuine  media to ensure optimal print quality.
