    zThe following paper can be used in the Auto Sheet Feeder.
    Paper Size 
    Standard paper: From 4 x 6 / 101.6 x 152.4 mm to A3+ (13 x 19) 
    size (329.0 x 483.0 mm / 13 x 19 inches)
    Non-standard paper: From 89.0 x 120.0 mm / 3.50 x 4.72 inches to 
    329.0 x 584.2 mm / 12.95 x 23 inches
    Weight 
    From 64 gsm / 17 lb to 105 gsm / 28 lb (plain paper except for 
    supported Canon genuine media)
    *You can use art paper that is not produced by Canon that is up to 200 
    gsm / 53 lb.
    Do not use heavier or lighter paper (except for supported Canon 
    genuine media), as it could jam in the printer.
    See “Non-Canon Genuine Specialty Paper” of the 
    User’s Guide on-
    screen manual.
    zWhen printing on plain paper (64 gsm / 17 lb), load up to 150 sheets in 
    the Auto Sheet Feeder.
    However, the paper may not feed correctly depending on the type of 
    paper and the environment (high temperature / high humidity / low 
    temperature / low humidity). If this happens, reduce the number of 
    sheets of paper by about half (approximately 5 mm / 0.2 inches).
    zWhen printing on art paper that is not produced by Canon that is up to 
    200 gsm / 53 lb, load one sheet at a time.
    zWhen printing on plain paper, do not stack more than 50 sheets in the 
    Front Tray.
    zDo not touch the printed surfaces until the ink dries. For specific drying 
    times, refer to the instructions packaged with your media.

    „Loading 4 x 6 or 5 x 7-Siz ed Paper in the Auto Sheet Feeder
    If you cut plain paper to 4 x 6 / 101.6 x 152.4 mm, 5 x 7 / 127.0 x 
    177.8 mm for a trial print, it can cause paper jams.
    (4) Select  4 x 6 in 101.6 x 152.4 mm  or 5 x 7 in 127.0 x 177.8 mm  from Page Size  in 
    the printer driver.
    For a detailed description of the printer driver settings, refer to  “Printing with 
    Windows ” on page 18, or  “Printing with Macintosh ” on page 21.
    Always load paper in portrait orientation. Loading paper in 
    landscape orientation can cause the paper to be jammed.
    We recommend using Canon genuine photo media when printing 
    photographs.
    See  “Using Specialty Media ” on page 15.
    (1) Load the paper and align 
    it with the right edge of 
    the Auto Sheet Feeder 
    with the print side facing 
    UP.
    • Load the paper lengthways regardless of the direction of 
    the document.
    • You can load up to 20 sheets  of 4 x 6-sized paper; 10 
    sheets of 5 x 7-sized 
    paper.
    (2) Pinch the Paper Guide and 
    slide it against the left side 
    of the paper stack.(3) Ensure that the  FRONT FEED button is not lit.
    If the  FRONT FEED  button is lit or flashing, set the 
    Front Tray to its normal printing position.
    See  “Returning the Front Tray to Its Normal Printing 
    Position ” on page 14.

    „Loading Paper in the Front Tray
    FRONT FEED Button
    You can check the printer status by  FRONT FEED button indication.
    The  FRONT FEED  button flashes quickly (two flashes at a time) when preparations for 
    loading the paper in the Front Tray are finished. Load the paper in the Front Tray 
    correctly. 
    The  FRONT FEED  button flashes slowly (one long flash at a time) when preparations to 
    start printing from the Front Tray are complete. Start printing from the Front Tray. 
    The  FRONT FEED  button is unlit when the Front Tray is in its normal printing position. 
    The  FRONT FEED  button lights when the Front Tray is in the Front Paper Feeding 
    Position.
    When loading paper in the Front Tray, the paper sticks out from the back 
    of the printer. Keep a space of 40 cm / 15.7 inches for this purpose 
    behind the printer.
    There are wheels on the back corners of the printer. Lift up the front of the 
    printer to move it back and forth.
    For detailed information on the Canon genuine media for use with its 
    various printers, refer to  “Using Specialty Media ” on page 15, or 
    “Printing Media” in the 
    User’s Guide on-screen manual.

    3Open the Rear Support.
    4Prepare to load paper.
    Do not load paper when the POWER lamp is flashing. Otherwise, the 
    paper or the printer may be damaged.
    (1) Press the REAR SUPPORT button 
    to open the Rear Support.
    (2) Press the right 
    corner of the Rear 
    Support to open 
    the Rear Support 
    Extension.
    When loading paper 
    that is Letter size or 
    smaller, this 
    procedure is not 
    necessary.
    (3) Press the FRONT FEED button.
    The printer starts making operating 
    noises and then the POWER lamp flashes 
    for about 20 seconds.(1) Pull out the Front Tray

    5Load the paper.
    If the printer is not used for 5 minutes or more while it is as described in 
    (1) above, then the FRONT FEED button stops flashing and stays lit and 
    you cannot set the paper. If this happens, return to (3) in step 4.
    z When paper is curled, gently bend it in the opposite direction of the 
    curl (without curling the reverse side) and then load the paper. For 
    details on how to flatten paper curl, refer to  “Media is curled ” on page 
    72. 
    z When using Photo Paper Plus Semi-gloss, even if the sheet is curled, load 
    one sheet at a time as it is. If you roll up this paper to flatten, this may 
    cause cracks on the surface of the paper and reduce the print quality. 
    z To prevent paper from being curled, we recommend handling it in the 
    following ways:
    - Put unused paper back into the package, and store them 
    horizontally. 
    - Remove only as many sheets from the package as you need right  before printing.
    z For details on how to load the paper, refer to the appropriate section in 
    “Printing Media” in the 
    User’s Guide on-screen manual.
    (2) Load the paper straight 
    into the Front Tray with 
    the print side facing UP.
    Align the front edge of 
    the paper with the   
    mark on the Front Tray. 
    When printing from the 
    Front Tray, load one sheet 
    in the Front Tray at a time.
    Align the right edge of the 
    paper against the right side 
    of the Front Tray.
    (1) Ensure that the  POWER 
    lamp is lit and the  FRONT 
    FEED  button is flashing 
    quickly. 
    If the  POWER  lamp is 
    flashing blue, wait until it 
    stops flashing.

    6Prepare to start printing.
    Printing preparations are complete. Start printing.
    zThe following paper can be used in the Front Tray. 
    Paper Size  
    Standard paper: From 4 x 6 / 101.6 x 152.4 mm to 14 x 17 / 355.6 
    x 431.8 mm
    Non-standard paper: From 100.0 x 148.0 mm / 3.94 x 5.83 inches to 
    355.6 x 584.2 mm / 14 x 23 inches
    Thickness  
    From 0.1 mm / 4 mil to 1.2 mm / 47 mil
    Do not use paper thicker than this, as it could jam in the printer.
    z When printing on other than 14 x 17 / 355.6 x 431.8 mm paper from 
    a PictBridge compliant device, load paper in the Auto Sheet Feeder. For 
    details on paper that can be used for a PictBridge compliant device, 
    refer to  “About PictBridge Print Settings ” on page 28.

    „Returning the Front Tray to Its Normal Printing Position
    When using the Auto Sheet Feeder, set the Front Tray to its normal printing position.
    zBe sure to follow the procedure below when returning the Front Tray to 
    its normal printing position. Otherwise, the printer may be damaged.
    zWhen the Front Tray is set to the Front Paper Feeding Position, printing 
    by using the Auto Sheet Feeder is not possible. Be sure to set it to its 
    normal printing position.
    1Hold the Front Tray and slowly tilt it like you are closing it.
    2Open the Front Tray.
    Tilting the Front Tray lowers it to 
    its normal printing position.
    (1) Open the Front Tray to return it 
    to its normal printing position.
    (2) Ensure that the FRONT FEED 
    button is not lit.
