Canon K10158 manual Special media, Envelopes

Special media

Several special media have been designed for use with the BJC-50 and other Canon Bubble Jet printers. When you handle special media other than plain paper (e.g. Coated Paper), follow these guidelines:

•Store the media in its original package until you are ready to use it. Exposing media to direct sunlight or air may lower the print quality.

•Avoid high temperature and high humidity. Store media in a comfortable environment that is not subject to wide changes in temperature or humidity.

•Before using the media, always read the precautions and additional

instructions printed on the package or in the instructions provided 3

with the packet. Special media like Fabric Sheet FS-101 and T-Shirt Transfer TR-201 (TR-101 in the U.S.) require special handling after printing. Detailed instructions are provided with purchase of these media.

•When using High Resolution Paper HR-101, do not use the cleaning sheet supplied with the packet. The cleaning sheet will not feed smoothly through the BJC-50.

•When printing on Glossy photo Cards FM-101, feed the cards using the optional Auto Sheet Feeder ASF-50.

Envelopes

You can print addresses on envelopes of two common standard sizes:

•European DL size (220 x 110 mm).

•U.S. Commercial 10 (241 x 105 mm (9.5 x 4.1 inches)).

An envelope can be loaded horizontally or vertically for printing.

Envelopes, like other media, must be loaded one at a time.

If an envelope will not advance, use the top of a biro or pen to sharpen the crease of the right edge of the envelope.
