Canon iP3300 specification

Hold the Rear Cover so that the Rear Cover Lever comes to the left. Align the protrusions at the right edge of the cover with the slots at the rear of the printer and press on the lever to reattach the Rear Cover.

Important

Press firmly on the Rear Cover until it is fit squarely in the rear of the printer. If the Rear Cover is not reattached properly, paper may not be fed properly and cause paper jams.

Cleaning with the Printer Driver (Bottom Plate cleaning)

This section describes how to clean the inside of the printer. If the inside of the printer becomes dirty, printed paper may get dirty, so we recommend performing cleaning regularly.

Note

You cannot feed paper from the Front Feeder when performing Bottom Plate Cleaning. Always load paper in the Auto Sheet Feeder.

Cleaning the Inside of the Printer without a Computer

The inside of the printer can also be cleaned without a computer; it can be performed from the printer itself.

1.Make sure that the printer is turned on, and then remove any paper from the Auto Sheet Feeder.

2.Open the Front Feeder and extend the Paper Output Support.
