Recommended Paper Use

There are two steps recommended for getting the best output for your printed documents:

Set the printer thickness lever for the media used. (See “Load Limit and Paper Thickness Lever Position” on page 4.)

Select the correct media setting in the printer driver. (See “Chapter 2: Advanced Print Features” on page 9.)

General Business Printing

For everyday paper printing, use plain paper (17 to 28 lb.). Use standard #10 envelopes with your S600 printer.

Specialty Media

For optimum results, Canon recommends that you use genuine Canon media with your S600 printer. Follow the instructions that come with any specialty media on storing, handling and printing.

The specialty media available for use with the S600 include:

Canon High Resolution Paper

Canon Transparencies

Canon Banner Paper

Canon Glossy Photo Paper

Canon Photo Paper Pro

Canon Glossy Photo Cards

Canon High Gloss Photo Film

Canon Magnet Sheets

Canon Greeting Cards

Canon T-Shirt Transfers

For instructions on loading and handling specialty media, see the instructions that come with that media type or see the S600 User’s Guide on the Setup Software & User’s Guide CD-ROM.

Handle media carefully by its edges. Dirt or fingerprints on the print surface will adversely affect print quality.
