CHAPTER

 

 

This chapter describes the media you can use with this machine, how to load them, and where the documents come out.

Print Media Requirements

For high-quality copies, we recommend using paper and transparencies recommended by Canon.

Some types of paper available at office supply stores may not be suitable for this machine. If you have any questions about paper and transparencies, contact your local authorized Canon dealer or the Canon help line.

■Paper Storage

In order to prevent paper jams, follow this procedure below:

•To prevent moisture buildup, store remaining paper wrapped tightly in its original package. Store paper in a dry location, out of direct sunlight.

•To prevent curling, store paper flat, not upright.

•If the paper is curled, uncurl it before loading it in the cassette or multi-purpose feeder. Failure to do so will cause paper creases and a paper jam.

■Unacceptable Paper

Do not copy on the following types of copy stock. Doing so may result in paper jams.

•Severely curled or wrinkled paper

•Transparencies designed for full-color copiers or printers

•Paper which has already been copied using a digital full-color copier (Do not copy on the reverse side.)

•Paper which has been printed on using a thermal transfer printer (Do not copy on the reverse side.)

IMPORTANT

Never attempt to make copies on full-color transparencies. Doing so may result in machine malfunction.
