Basic Printing
Caring for Your Photographs
The Canon i9900 Photo Printer will generate spectacular results for printing photographs, especially when used with Canon specialty media. All images are susceptible to fading over time, but proper care of prints made from your i9900 Photo Printer will ensure that print quality lasts long into the future.
Many environmental factors can impact how long a printout will last before noticeable image fading occurs. Exposure to sunlight or other light sources, humidity, temperature, exposure to cigarette smoke and ozone are just some of the factors that can impact image permanence. While many of these variables cannot be controlled, there are basic measures that you can take to prolong image quality:
•Use Canon Photo Paper Pro and genuine Canon inks. Canon Photo Paper Pro is available in A3+ size (13" x 19") and letter size (8 1/2" x 11"). Canon Photo Paper Pro for Borderless Printing is available in photo size (4" x 6"). These papers are specifically designed to work with genuine Canon inks.
•Mount images under glass to reduce exposure to ozone, cigarette smoke and other environmental factors that can degrade images.
•Keep printed images out of direct sunlight or other intense light sources.
