Basic Printing 2 Basic Printing Basic PrintingBasic Printing Basic Printing This Quick Start Guide describes some of the features of your printer and how to use them. For more information, view the iP6600D User’s Guide and Printer Driver Guide installed on your computer, or use the online help within your printer driver interface: While in the printer’s properties window, press the F1 key, or click in the upper right corner. Then click the feature you want to know more about, or click the Help button when displayed. While in the Page Setup dialog box or Print dialog box, click in the lower left corner. Clicking provides detailed information about each setting. When the Help window appears, select your desired topic. Turning on the Printer 1Press the POWER button. The POWER lamp flashes while the printer warms up and changes to steady (non- flashing) when the printer is ready. If the Alarm lamp lights, refer to “An Error Message is Displayed on the LCD” in the Direct Printing Guide. If the POWER lamp and the Alarm lamp flash alternately, see “POWER POWER POWER POWER Lamp and Alarm Lamp Flash Alternately Lamp and Alarm Lamp Flash AlternatelyLamp and Alarm Lamp Flash Alternately Lamp and Alarm Lamp Flash Alternately” on page 43. iP6600D_QSG_US.book Page 2 Monday, May 30, 2005 4:14 PM

Basic Printing 4 Loading Paper This section describes how to load paper in the auto sheet feeder and the cassette. 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 • Excessively thin paper (less than 64 gsm or 17 lb) • Excessively thick paper* (more than 105 gsm or 28 lb) * non-Canon branded paper • Picture postcards • Postcards affixed with photos or stickers •Envelopes with double flaps •Envelopes with sticker flaps • Envelopes with an embossed or treated surface • Any type of paper with holes Auto sheet feeder Cassette iP6600D_QSG_US.book Page 4 Monday, May 30, 2005 4:14 PM
Basic Printing 5 Using the Auto Sheet Feeder and the Cassette You can load paper in both the auto sheet feeder and cassette. Loading paper in the auto sheet feeder is easy, and is convenient if you frequently switch to and print on various sizes or types of paper. Loading paper in the cassette allows you to print without reloading paper for each job. This is convenient for loading a certain type of paper, such as plain paper, you regularly print onto. Loading paper in both the auto sheet feeder and cassette makes the following paper feed methods available: * Legal-sized paper and 2.13 x 3.39/54.0 x 86.0 mm size paper, and Photo Stickers PS-101 are not loadable in the cassette. • Changing the paper source to feed different types/sizes of paper If you load plain paper in the cassette and photo paper in the auto sheet feeder, changing the paper source allows you to print on both types of paper without removing and reloading paper. To change the paper source, use the Feed Switch button on the printer or printer driver. You can also specify the type/size of paper to be fed from the cassette for regular use with the printer driver. For example, you can specify that Letter-sized plain paper is always fed from the cassette whenever you print. For information on the printer driver settings, refer to the Printer Driver Guide . You can switch between paper loaded in the auto sheet feeder (e.g., 4 x 6/101.6 x 152.4 mm) and the cassette (e.g., A4/ Letter-sized paper). iP6600D_QSG_US.book Page 5 Monday, May 30, 2005 4:14 PM
Basic Printing 6 • Continuous printing on the same type/size of paper by using both the auto sheet feeder and cassette together If the auto sheet feeder or cassette runs out of paper, the paper source automatically switches to the other one. This is useful for printing onto a large volume of paper. To use this feature, you need to configure the printer driver beforehand. For information on the printer driver settings, refer to the Printer Driver Guide . • Choosing the paper source to match the location of the printer You can use just the auto sheet feeder or cassette according to the location of the printer. For example, if you intend to install the printer in a small place, such as on a shelf with minimal space, you can use just the cassette for printing. Legal-sized paper and 2.13 x 3.39/54.0 x 86.0 mm size paper, and Photo Stickers PS-101 are not loadable in the cassette. If you intend to use only the cassette, check any usage restrictions in advance. If the auto sheet feeder runs out of paper, the paper source automatically changes to the cassette. iP6600D_QSG_US.book Page 6 Monday, May 30, 2005 4:14 PM
