Loading Paper

_,_ Important

If you cut plain paper to 4" x 6" / 101.6 x 152.4 mm, 5" x 7" / 127.0 x 177.8 mm, or 2.13" x 3.39" / 54.0 x 86.0 mm (credit card-size) for a trial print, it can cause paper jams.

You cannot print on postcards affixed with photos or stickers.

Always load paper in portrait orientation (A). Loading paper in landscape orientation (B) can cause the paper to be jammed.

(A)(B)

Note

We recommend using genuine Canon photo media when printing photographs. For details on the specialty media Canon provides for use with its various printers, see "Using Specialty Media" on page 12.

When Printing on Plain Paper

You can use general copy paper or Carton's Super White Paper. When printing on both sides, we recommend Canon's Super White Paper Double-Sided.

Paper size:

-Standard sizes: A4, B5, A5, Letter, and Legal

-Non-standard sizes: 2.13 x 3.39 inches to 8.5 x 23 inches / 54.0 x 86.0 mm to 215.9 x 584.2 mm

Paper weight: 17 to 28 Ib / 64 to 105 gsm (non-Canon genuine plain paper)

Flatten the four corners of the paper before loading it.

\

Note

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

If paper is curled, hold the opposing curled corners and gently bend them in the opposite direction until the paper becomes completely flat. See "Paper is curled." on page 64.

To avoid curling, handle paper as follows.

-Put unused paper back into the package and keep them on a level surface.

-Take out only the necessary number of sheets from the package, just before printing.
