Using Canon's Specialty Papers

This selection provides guidelines for printing on Canon's Specialty Papers and describes special procedures required for High Resolution Paper and Fabric Sheets.

Specialty Paper Guidelines

Be sure to read any instructions that come with your Canon specialty paper. These instructions provide important information regarding how to achieve the highest quality with these papers.

For transparency film, back print film, high gloss photo film, and glossy photo paper, follow these guidelines:

oWhen automatically feeding transparencies or back print film, remove each sheet after it is delivered. Do not allow film sheets to stack up.

oLet the printed sheets of film or paper dry completely before storing them.

Paper type	Drying time (approx.)
Canon High Gloss Photo Film	10 minutes
Canon Glossy Photo Paper GP-201	2 minutes
Canon Fabric Sheet FS-101	1 hour
Canon Back Print Film BF-102	15 minutes
Canon CF-102 Transparencies	15 minutes

oWhen a sheet of film has dried completely, cover its printed side with a sheet of plain (not coated) paper before storing it; this is recommended even if you place the sheets of film in a clear file or plastic holder.
