Chapter 1
z Media types you cannot use
Do not use the following types of paper. Using such paper will not only produce unsatisfactory results, but can also cause the machine to jam or malfunction.
z Folded, curled or wrinkled paper z Damp paper z Excessively thin paper (less than 64 gsm or 17 lb) z Excessively thick paper* (more than 105 gsm or 28 lb)(non-Canon branded paper) z Picture postcards z Postcards affixed with photos or stickers z Envelopes with double flaps z Envelopes with sticker flaps z Envelopes with an embossed or treated surface z Any type of paper with holes
z Handling paper
z Hold the paper as closely as possible to its edges and try not to touch the print surface. Print quality will deteriorate if the print surface is damaged or becomes dirty.
z Do not touch the print surface until the ink has dried. If prints get wet, do not touch the printed side until they dry.
z Paper may curl or the print surface may become smudged if you use a large amount of ink for printing. In this case, select <ON> for <Prevent paper abrasion> under <Device settings>.
See “If printing surface abrasion is not resolved even after taking the actions above:” on page 116 . Do not print photos or documents that contain graphics on paper that curls easily.
Remove this kind of paper for printing text-only documents.
z If the paper is curled, uncurl it before printing. To uncurl the paper, see “Paper is curled.” on page 115 .
z Put unused paper back into the package, and store them out of direct sunlight in a place where the temperature and humidity are low. Keep them on a level surface to avoid curling and wrinkling.
z If the printed area is traced with a highlight pen or paint-stick or stained with water or sweat, ink may blur.
z Photo Paper Pro guidelines
z Do not touch the print surface until the ink is dry (approx. 30 minutes). Colors in dark images may appear indistinct at first, but will become clearer after approx. 30 minutes. z Images may become smudged if you place them in an album before the ink is completely dry.
It is recommended that you allow the ink to dry for 24 hours. 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, damp, 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. z Be aware that some types of clear plastic folders and albums may cause the edges of the paper to turn yellow.

About 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:
* Some types of paper cannot be used on the Cassette. See “Recommended Paper and
Requirements” on page 21 .
z 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 [Feed Switch] on the machine 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.
Note
For information on the printer driver settings, refer to the Printer Driver
Guide.
(A)
(A) You can switch between paper loaded in the Auto Sheet Feeder (e.g., 4" x 6" / 101.6 x 152.4 mm) or the Cassette (e.g., A4/Letter-sized paper).
z 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 can select this setting with the printer driver beforehand.
Important z This feature can be used only when printing from a computer.

Keeping the Best Printing Results
When unplugging the power cord
When unplugging the power cord, be sure to press [ON/OFF] first. When you press [ON/OFF], the Print Head is protected by the cap to prevent the ink from drying. When unplugging the power cord, be sure to unplug it after turning OFF the machine with [ON/OFF].
When not using the machine for a long time
When not using the machine for a long time, print or copy in both black & white and in color, or perform Print Head cleaning, about once a month to prevent degradation of the Print Head.
Numerous nozzles are installed in the Print Head for high-precision printing. Just as the uncapped tip of a ballpoint pen or marker becomes dry and unusable if not used for a long period of time, the Print Head nozzles become blocked by dried ink. Periodically printing or cleaning the
Print Head can prevent this blockage.
Note
If the printed area is traced with a highlight pen or paint-stick or stained with water or sweat, ink may blur.
Chapter 10
Routine Maintenance 93
When Printing Becomes Faint or Colors are Incorrect
When printing becomes faint or colors are incorrect, even if ink remains in the ink tanks, the Print
Head nozzles are probably clogged. Follow the procedures below to clean the nozzles.
If the ruled lines are shifted after running the Print Head maintenance, align the Print Head.
Note
Before printing the nozzle check pattern or cleaning the Print Head, check the following;
– Open the Scanning Unit (Printer Cover), and make sure that all the ink tanks click into place and then their lamps light red.
– If any one of the lamps is flashing, the associated ink tank is empty or running low. See “Replacing Ink Tanks” on page 90 .
If an ink tank lamp is flashing even though ink remains in that ink tank, it is inserted in the wrong position. Make sure that the correct ink tank color is inserted in each position. Open the Scanning Unit (Printer Cover) and make sure all the ink tank lamps are lit. See “Replacing an Ink Tank” on page 88 .
– If the ink tank lamp is unlit, press the mark on the ink tank firmly until it clicks to fully insert it. Make sure that all packaging material is peeled off the ink tank. See “Replacing Ink Tanks” on page 90 .

Cannot Print Properly from the Digital Camera
The following are the possible errors that may occur when printing directly from a digital still camera or digital video camcorder*, and the countermeasures to eliminate them.
* Hereafter, the digital still camera and digital video camcorder are collectively called a digital camera or camera.
Note z PictBridge or Canon Bubble Jet Direct compatible digital cameras can be connected to your machine for direct printing.
z This section describes errors that are indicated on Canon-brand PictBridge- or Bubble Jet Direct compatible cameras. The error messages and operations may vary depending on the camera you are using. If you are using a non-Canon PictBridge compatible camera and not sure how to clear the printer error from the camera, confirm the message displayed on the LCD of the machine and clear the error. For clearing an error from the machine, see
“An Error Message is Displayed on the LCD” on page 105 .
z A communication time out occurs if printing takes a long time or if it takes too much time to send data. This may stop printing. In such cases, disconnect the cable between the machine and the camera, and reconnect the cable between the machine and the camera. Then, turn the camera on, if it does not automatically turn on. If the problem is still unresolved, select some other photo and check if it can be printed or not.
z Your PictBridge compatible device may need to be switched to printing mode before it is connected to the machine, depending on the model of the camera.
Also, it may need to be turned on manually or switched to replay mode after connected to the machine. Refer to the instruction manuals supplied with your camera and take the necessary steps before connection.
z The print head nozzles may be clogged if printing becomes faint or colors are incorrect. See “When Printing Becomes Faint or Colors are Incorrect” on page 94 .
