Manually Feeding Thick Paper or Transparencies

You use the manual feed feature when printing on paper that is a heavier weight (up to 28lb or 105 g/m²) or a transparency stock.

Use transparencies that are intended for use with ink jet printers. For best results, use Canon's BJ transparency film #Q07-0001-M1. You can also use 3M's CG3480 transparency film.

CAUTION:

TAlways feed transparencies manually.

Use transparencies only in a normal operating environment. High temperatures may damage a transparency.

To manually feed a single sheet, follow these steps:

1.Make sure the printer is turned on and on-line.

2.Set the paper selection lever (on the right side of the sheet feeder) to the forward position.

3.If you are printing on thick paper, open the front cover and make sure the green paper thickness lever (inside the printer) is set to the right.

4.Align the sheet of paper or transparency with the right edge of the sheet feeder, and adjust the paper guide to the sheet.
