Loading Paper
This section describes how to load paper in the Sheet Feeder and the Cassette.
Sheet Feeder
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 (Loose-leaf paper is an exception; it is printable when
loaded from the Sheet Feeder.)
Basic Printing
„ Using the Sheet Feeder and the Cassette
You can load paper in both the Sheet Feeder and Cassette.
Loading paper in the 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 large volume of the type of paper you regularly print
onto.
Loading paper in both the Sheet Feeder and Cassette makes the following paper feed
methods available:
• Changing the paper source to feed different types/sizes of paper
If you load plain paper in the Cassette and photo paper in the 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 Paper Feed Switch 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 “Changing the
Paper Source” in the User’s Guide.
• Continuous printing on the same type/size of paper by using both the Sheet Feeder
and Cassette together
If the 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 “Changing the
Paper Source” in the User’s Guide.
• Choosing the paper source to match the location of the printer
You can use just the 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 are not
loadable in the Cassette.
For more information on the media loadable in the Sheet Feeder and the
Cassette, refer to “Printing Media” in the User’s Guide.

Safety Precautions
Please read the safety warnings and cautions provided in this manual to ensure that you use
your printer safely. Do not attempt to use printer in any way not described in this manual.
You may cause an electric shock, fire or damage the printer if you ignore any of
these safety precautions.
Choosing a location
Do not place the printer close to flammable solvents such as alcohol or thinners.
Power supply
Never attempt to plug in or unplug the printer from the power supply when your hands are wet.
Always push the plug all the way into the power outlet.
Never damage, modify, stretch or excessively bend or twist the power cord.
Do not place heavy objects on the power cord.
Never plug the printer into a power socket that is shared with other
equipment (extension lead/cord, 2- or 3-way adapter, etc.).
Never use the printer if the power cord is bundled or knotted.
If you detect smoke, unusual smells or strange noises around the printer, immediately unplug the
printer at the power supply and call for service.
Periodically, unplug the printer and use a dry cloth to wipe off any dust or
dirt collected on the plug and the power outlet. If the printer is placed at a
location exposed to a lot of dust, smoke, or high humidity, the dust
collected on the plug absorbs moisture and may cause insulation failure and
fire.
Cleaning the printer
Use a damp cloth to clean the printer. Never use flammable solvents such
as alcohol, benzene or thinners.
If flammable solvents come in contact with electrical components inside the
printer, it could cause a fire or electric shock.
Always unplug the printer from the power outlet before cleaning the printer.
If you accidentally switch the printer on while cleaning it, you could injure yourself or damage the
printer.
Maintaining the printer
Do not attempt to disassemble or modify the printer. There are no user serviceable parts inside
the printer.
The printer contains high-voltage components. Never attempt any maintenance procedure not
described in this guide.
Working around the
printer
Do not use flammable sprays near the printer.
This could cause a fire or electric shock if the spray comes into contact with electrical components
inside the printer.
88
Appendix
You may cause injury or damage the printer if you ignore any of these safety
precautions.
Choosing a location
Do not install the printer in a location that is unstable or subject to excessive vibration.
Do not install the printer in locations that are very humid or dusty, in direct sunlight, outdoors, or
close to a heating source.
To avoid the risk of fire or electric shocks, install the printer in a location with an ambient
temperature range of 5°C to 35°C (41°F to 95°F) and humidity of 10% to 90% (condensation free).
Do not place the printer on a thick rug or carpet.
Ensure that the area around the power outlet is kept clear at all times so you
can easily unplug the power cord if necessary.
Do not place the printer with its back attached to the wall.
Power supply
Never remove the plug by pulling on the cord.
Do not use an extension lead/ cord.
Never use a power supply source other than the one rated for the printer in the country where you
purchased the printer.
AC 110-120 V, 50/60 Hz
AC 220-240 V, 50/60 Hz
Working around the
printer
Never put your hands or fingers in the printer while it is printing.
Do not place any object on the printer.
Do not place metal objects (paper clips, staples, etc.) or containers of flammable solvents (alcohol,
thinners, etc.) on top of the printer.
If any foreign object (metal or liquid) fall into the printer, unplug the power cord and call for
service.
Do not transport or store the printer on a slant, vertically or upside-down, as the ink may leak and
damage the printer.
Print heads and ink tanks For safety reasons store Print Heads and ink tanks out of the reach of small children.
If a child ingests any ink, consult a doctor immediately.
Do not shake Print Heads or ink tanks.
Ink may leak out and stain clothing or the surrounding area.
Never touch the electrical contacts on a Print Head after printing.
The metal parts may be very hot and could cause burns.
Radio wave interference
Since the microwave oven and the wireless LAN system use the same frequency bandwidth, the
microwave oven can be the potential source of interference when the microwave oven is on.
Placing this product close to microwave oven may result in the poor status of radio.
