Always load paper short edge first, even for landscape printing.

Load letterhead or pre-printed paper top edge first.

Note:

The edge guide moves slightly during paper feeding and printing.

Do not adjust it while printing is in progress.

8 Loading Paper

5. Make sure the printer is on so it can load the paper correctly.

6. Insert one sheet of paper, printable side up and against the right side, then slide the edge guide against the sheet, but not too tightly.

Note:

Load paper short edge first, no matter which way your photo faces. Check the paper package for any additional loading instructions.

7. Guide the paper into the printer until it meets resistance and hold it there until the printer pulls it in slightly. Once the printer begins feeding the paper, let go of it.

8. Open the printer cover and make sure the paper has fed all the way into the printer and is straight. The paper must feed straight so the printer can properly identify the edge.

If the paper is crooked or the front edge is visible, you may receive a paper jam error when you print. To avoid this, press and hold the I paper button for three seconds to eject the paper. Remove the paper from the printer, press the

I paper button again to clear the paper out error, and load the paper again.

9. Close the printer cover and do not open it during printing.

Loading Roll Paper

You can load roll paper or canvas media for printing large images, panoramic images, or multiple photos, with or without borders.

You can load roll paper in these widths:

■

■

8.3-inches wide

13-inches wide

(See page 15 for a list of roll paper and canvas media types and sizes.)

Tip:

It’s a good idea to check the ink status and replace cartridges, if necessary, before

loading roll paper (see page 35). This is because you must remove roll paper from the

printer before replacing cartridges to avoid ink marks on the paper.

1. Turn on the printer.

2. Remove any paper loaded in the sheet feeder and remove the single sheet

guide, if it is installed (see page 8). Also close the paper support.

3. Open the output tray, but do not pull out the extensions.

4. Place the roll paper holders on each end of the paper roll as shown.

5. Remove any tape and protective paper from the end of the roll and make sure the corners of the paper are cut straight and at 90° angles to avoid paper feeding problems.

10 Loading Paper

Note:

Avoid touching the surface of your paper or canvas media.

With canvas media that you have previously loaded, it’s a good idea to cut the edge straight each time you reload it.

6. Move the roll paper edge guide at the back of the printer all the way to the right.

7. Insert the left roll paper holder (marked with a triangle) into the far left slot on the back of the printer (marked with an orange triangle). Then insert the right roll paper holder in the corresponding slot on the right.

8. Feed the end of the paper into the roll paper feeder, located behind the roll and marked with the M roll paper icon.

Loading Paper 11

9. Slide the roll paper edge guide against the right side of the paper, but not too tightly.

Caution:

Do not load roll paper or canvas media into the auto sheet feeder (marked with up orange triangles).

10. Guide the paper into the slot until it meets resistance and hold it there until the printer pulls it in slightly. Once the printer begins feeding the paper, let go of it.

Note:

When loading canvas media, leave 2 to 3 inches of slack in the roll as it feeds and prints for the best results. If you have trouble feeding canvas media, check that the edge is straight and reload it, making sure to keep the roll slack.

11. Open the printer cover and look into the printer to make sure the roll paper or canvas media is feeding straight. The paper must feed straight so the printer can properly identify the edge of it.

If it is crooked or the front edge is visible, you may receive a paper jam error when you print.

To avoid this, press and hold the M roll paper button for three seconds to back the paper out.

Remove the paper from the printer, press the

I paper button to clear the paper out error, then load the roll paper or canvas media again.

12. For roll paper, turn the knobs on the roll paper holders backward to remove the excess slack. (Leave 2 to 3 inches of slack for canvas media.)

13. Close the printer cover and do not open it during printing.

Removing Roll Paper Prints and Roll Paper

1. To remove your roll paper or canvas media prints, press the M roll paper button to feed the paper forward, then cut off your printed photos straight across the paper at the cutting guideline.

Caution:

Do not pull on the paper as you cut it to avoid damaging your printout. Also do not cut the paper too close to the printer to avoid paper feeding problems.

2. To continue printing on roll paper or canvas media, press the M roll paper button again to return the paper to printing position.

12 Loading Paper

3. If you are finished printing on roll paper or canvas media, press and hold the

M roll paper button for 3 seconds to feed the paper backward and out of the printer. If it does not feed all the way out, press the M roll paper button again.

4. Turn the knobs on the roll paper holders backward to roll up the paper, then remove the paper and holders from the printer.

5. Press the I paper button to stop the I paper light from flashing.

Store the unused roll paper or canvas media in its original package away from high temperatures, humidity, and direct sunlight.

Loading Thick Media

Use the front manual feed slot to load 13 × 19-inch media that is 1.0 to 1.3 mm thick.

Note:

Make sure there is enough space behind the printer for the media to feed through the printer.

1. Turn on the printer.

2. Remove any roll paper, canvas media, or paper loaded in the sheet feeder or single sheet guide. Then close the paper support.

3. If necessary, remove the single sheet guide (see page 8) or roll paper holders

(see page 12).

4. Open the output tray.

Loading Paper 13

5. Open the front manual feed slot cover and slide the edge guide left.

6. Insert one sheet of thick media into the front manual feed slot, short edge first with the printable side face-up, until the trailing edge is aligned with the arrows.

7. Slide the edge guide to the side of the media, but not too tightly.

Note:

If the printer doesn’t load the media and the I paper light flashes when printing starts, gently pull out the media and turn off the printer. Then turn on the printer and try again.

Caution:

Don’t turn off the printer when thick media is loaded or you may damage the printer. To remove the media from the printer without printing, gently pull out the media.

8. When you’re finished printing on thick media, close the front manual feed slot cover.
