Loading Envelopes

Important

• If you cut plain paper into small size such as 4" x 6" (10 x 15 cm) or 5" x 7" (13 x 18 cm) to perform trial print, it can cause paper jams.

Note

• We recommend Canon genuine photo paper for printing photos.

1. Prepare paper.

Align the edges of paper. If paper is curled, flatten it.

• Align the edges of paper neatly before loading. Loading paper without aligning the edges may cause paper jams.

• If paper is curled, hold the curled corners and gently bend them in the opposite direction until the paper becomes completely flat.

For details on how to flatten curled paper, see Is the paper curled?.
