acceptable, specify the function settings on the application software. When you specify
the number of copies and the printing order with both the application software and this

specified printing order may not be enabled.
15
Setting the Stapling Margin
The procedure for setting the staple side and the margin width is as follows:
1. Select Margin from the pop-up menu on the Print Dialog
2. Set the staple side and the margin width
Select a stapling position from the Stapling Side list, and if necessary, set the
Margin width.
Note
The printer automatically reduces the print area depending on the staple
position margin.
Depending on the Two-Sided setting in the Layout pop-up menu, the Stapling
Side that can be selected differs.
3. Complete the setup
16
Click Print.
When you execute print, the data is printed with the specified staple side and margin
width.
Important
When borderless printing is enabled, Stapling Side and Margin appear grayed out
and are unavailable.
17
Execute Borderless Printing
The borderless printing function allows you to print data without any margin by enlarging the
data so that it extends slightly off the paper. In standard printing, margins are created
around the document area. However, in borderless printing function, these margins are not
created. When you want to print data such as a photo without providing any margin around
it, set borderless printing.
The procedure for performing borderless printing is as follows:
Setting Borderless Printing
1. Select the size of the paper for borderless printing
Select "XXX (borderless)" from the Paper Size in the Print Dialog.
2. Select Borderless Printing from the pop-up menu
3. Adjust the amount of extension from the paper
If necessary, adjust the amount of extension using the Amount of Extension slider.
Moving the slider to the right increases the amount extending off the paper, and
moving the slider to the left decreases the amount.
18
It is recommended to set the slider at the second position from the right for most
cases.
Important
When the Amount of Extension slider is set to the rightmost position, the back
side of the paper may become smudged.
4. Complete the setup
Click Print.
When you execute print, the data is printed without any margins on the paper.
Important
Borderless printing only supports specific paper sizes. Make sure to select a paper
size with the wording "(borderless)" from the Paper Size.
When borderless printing is enabled, Envelope, High Resolution Paper, and T-Shirt
Transfers appear grayed out and are unavailable in Media Type list of Quality & Media
of the pop-up menu in the Print dialog.
Print quality may deteriorate or the sheet may be stained at the top and bottom
depending on the type of paper used.
When the ratio of the height to the width differs from the image data, a portion of the
image may not be printed depending on the size of the media used.
In this case, crop the image data with an application software according to the paper
size.
When scaled printing or page layout printing is enabled, you cannot perform
borderless printing.
Note
When Plain Paper is selected from the Media Type menu of the Quality & Media,
borderless printing is not recommended.
19
Expanding the Range of the Document to Print
Setting a large amount of extension allows you to perform borderless printing with no
problems. However, the portion of the document extending off the paper range will not be
printed and for this reason, the subjects around the perimeter of a photo may not be printed.
Try borderless printing once. When you are not satisfied with the result of borderless
printing, reduce the amount of extension. The extension amount decreases as the Amount
of Extension slider is moved to the left.
Important
When the amount of extension is decreased, an unexpected margin may be produced
on the print, depending on the size of the paper.
Note
When the Amount of Extension slider is set to the leftmost position, image data will
be printed in the full size. If you set this when printing the address side of a postcard, the
postal code of the sender is printed in the correct position.
20
Scaling the Printing to Fit the Paper Size
The procedure for printing a document that is automatically enlarged or reduced to fit the
page size to be used is as follows:
1. Check the paper size
Check that the Paper Size in the Print Dialog is the same as the paper size that you
set in the application software.
2. Select Paper Handling from the pop-up menu
3. Set the print paper size
Check the Scale to fit paper size check box. Then from the Destination Paper Size
pop-up menu, select the paper size that is actually loaded in the machine.
4. If necessary, check the Scale down only check box
21
When you check this check box, the document will be reduced to fit to the paper size
when the document size is larger than the page size. The document will be printed in
the original size when the document size is smaller than the page size.
5. Complete the setup
Click Print.
When you execute print, the document will be enlarged or reduced to fit to the page
size.
22
Scaled Printing
The procedure for printing a document with pages enlarged or reduced is as follows:
1. Select the printer
In the Page Setup Dialog, select your model name from the Format For list.
2. Set scaled printing
Specify the scaling factor in the Scale box, and click OK.
Note

to a value in the range from 1 to 999%.
If you are using Mac OS X v10.6.8, set a value in the range from 1 to 10000%. If
you enter any other value, an error message will be displayed.
3. Complete the setup
On the Print Dialog, click Print.
When you execute print, the document will be printed with the specified scale.
23
Important
When the application software which you used to create the original has the scaled
printing function, configure the settings on your application software. You do not need to
configure the same setting in the Page Setup dialog.
24
Page Layout Printing
The page layout printing function allows you to print more than one page image on a single
sheet of paper.
The procedure for performing page layout printing is as follows:
1. Select Layout from the pop-up menu in the Print Dialog

1. Set duplex printing
Check the Two-Sided check box in the Print Dialog.
2. Select Layout from the pop-up menu on the Print Dialog

Optimal Photo Printing of Image Data
When people print images taken with digital cameras, they sometimes feel that the printed
color tones differ from those of actual image or those displayed on the monitor.
To get the print results as close as possible to the desired color tones, you must select a
printing method that is best suited to the application software used or to your purpose.
Color Management
Devices such as digital cameras, scanners, monitors, and printers handle color differently.
Color management (color matching) is a method that manages device-dependent "colors"
as a common color space.
For Mac OS, a color management system called "ColorSync" is built into the operating
system.
Adobe RGB and sRGB are popularly used as common color spaces. Adobe RGB has a
wider color space than sRGB.
ICC profiles convert device-dependent "colors" into a common color space. By using an
ICC profile and carrying out color management, you can draw out the color space of the
image data within the color reproduction area that the printer can express.
Selecting a Printing Method Suited to the Image Data
The recommended printing method depends on the color space (Adobe RGB or sRGB) of
the image data or the application software to be used.
There are two typical printing methods.
Check the color space (Adobe RGB or sRGB) of the image data and the application
software to be used, and then select the printing method suited to your purpose.
Adjusting Colors with the Printer Driver
Describes the procedure for printing by using the color correction function of the printer
driver.
• To print using Canon Digital Photo Color
The printer prints data with color tints that most people prefer, reproducing colors of the
original image data and producing three-dimensional effects and high, sharp contrasts.
• To print by directly applying editing and touch-up results of an application software
When printing the data, the printer brings out subtle color difference between dark and
light areas, while leaving the darkest and lightest areas intact.
When printing the data, the printer applies fine adjustment results, such as brightness
adjustments made with an application software.
40
Printing with ICC Profiles (Specifying an ICC Profile from the Application Software)
Describes the procedure for printing by using the color space of Adobe RGB or sRGB
effectively.
You can print with a common color space by setting up the application software and the
printer driver so that the color management matches the input ICC profile of the image data.
The method for setting up the printer driver differs depending on the application software to
be used.

Printing with ICC Profiles (Specifying an ICC Profile from
the Application Software)
When you print from Adobe Photoshop, Canon Digital Photo Professional, or any
application software that can identify input ICC profiles and allows you to specify such
profiles, printer uses the color management system (ColorSync) built-into Mac OS when
printing. The printer prints the editing and touch-up results of the application software and
effectively uses the color space of the input ICC profile specified in the image data.
To use this printing method, use your application software to select color management
items and specify an input ICC profile and a printing ICC profile in the image data.
Even if you print using a printing ICC profile that you created yourself or one for special
Canon paper, be sure to select color management items from your application software.
For instructions on specifying an ICC profile with an application software program, refer to
the user's manual of your application software.
1. Select Color Matching from the pop-up menu of the Print Dialog
2. Select color correction
