Turning the Machine ON and OFF
Turn on the machine before using.
Turning on the Machine
Before turning on the machine, confirm that the FINE Cartridge is set into place.
Note
If preparatory operations are not yet finished, follow your setup sheet to complete them.
1
To turn on the machine, press [ON].
[ON] flashes green for a while, and then turns on.
Note
z If an error message is displayed on the LCD, see “LCD Messages” on page 73.
z When the machine is left inactive for more than 4 minutes 30 seconds, the LCD goes off
automatically and the machine enters the power saver mode. Press any button on the
Operation Panel except for [ON] to restore the display.
Turning off the Machine
1
To turn off the machine, press [ON].
The machine is off after <SHUTTING DOWN...> is displayed on the LCD.
Important
z Always turn off the machine before disconnecting the power cord. This ensures the FINE
Cartridge is covered to prevent it from drying out.
z If the machine is not used for an extended period of time, we recommend making copies or
performing FINE Cartridge cleaning about once every month to prevent degradation of the FINE
Cartridge.
z The FINE Cartridge has many nozzles in order to produce high-definition prints. In the same
way that the tip of a felt-tip or marker pen will naturally dry out over time and become unusable
even with the cap in place, the nozzles might become clogged. Periodically printing or
performing FINE Cartridge cleaning can help to prevent this kind of clogging.
z If you change to another telephone line, turn off the machine before unplugging the telephone
line cable.
Note
The power cannot be turned off with [ON] while the machine is operating.

Replacing a FINE Cartridge
If there is no improvement with the quality of printing following such maintenance as FINE Cartridge
Cleaning, the FINE Cartridge is probably empty. Replace the empty FINE Cartridge with a new one.
When replacing a FINE Cartridge, check the model number very carefully.
Knowing When to Replace a FINE Cartridge
z When Ink is Low
When the ink level is low, <RECOMEND NEW CRT> is displayed on the LCD and the Ink Lamp
lights up. In this state the FAX will receive documents to memory (up to 30 transactions or 60
pages) to prevent the information contained in the FAX from being lost if the ink runs out
completely. You need to print out received faxes manually from the <MEMORY REFERENCE>
menu.
After printing, delete unnecessary faxes from the memory. For more details, see “Documents
Stored in Memory” on page 39.
z When Ink is Empty
When the ink is almost empty, <RECOMEND NEW CRT> is displayed on the LCD and the Ink
Lamp blinks. When this occurs it may not be possible to clearly print received faxes from
memory. When the ink is empty, <NO INK> is displayed on the LCD. Replace the FINE Cartridge
with new one. For more details, see “Replacing a FINE Cartridge” on page 52.
Printing will resume as soon as the FINE Cartridge is replaced.
z Press [Stop/Reset] to cancel the current print job.
Replace the empty ink cartridge immediately after the printing. The resulting print quality is not
satisfactory, if printing is continued under the ink out condition.

Note
z The resulting print quality may not be satisfactory, if printing is continued under this condition.
z When the ink level is low, the print quality may become poor, and the machine will start storing
incoming fax data in the memory.

z Replace the FINE Cartridge promptly. Do not leave with the FINE Cartridge removed.
z When a FINE Cartridge runs out of ink, replace the FINE Cartridge with a new one immediately.
If you replace it with the FINE Cartridge that has previously been removed, the machine may
not print properly due to clogged FINE Cartridge nozzles. Furthermore, the Low Ink Warning
dialog box which advises when to exchange the FINE Cartridge will be inaccurate.
z To maintain optimal print quality, use up all the ink in the FINE Cartridge within six months of its
first use (We recommend that you note the date that the FINE Cartridge was installed in the
machine).
z Releasing the function for detecting the remaining ink level is memorized. Please be advised
that Canon shall not be liable for any malfunction or trouble caused by continuation of printing
under the ink out condition.
Note
z Load the paper in the Rear Tray before you replace the FINE Cartridge.
z The machine may make some operating noises when preparing to print. This is normal
operation.
Testing and Cleaning the FINE Cartridge
The print head in the FINE Cartridge contains nozzles through which ink is propelled onto the paper.
To maintain the best possible print quality, these nozzles need to be cleaned from time to time. Your
fax is equipped with a print head cleaning function that does this.
Printing the Nozzle Check Pattern
Before cleaning the print head, you may want to print the nozzle check pattern to test the print
head of the FINE Cartridge installed in the fax. This test shows if each print head nozzle is
operating properly.

a Power Failure” on page 73.
Cleaning the Exterior of the Machine
When cleaning the exterior of the machine, do not use tissue paper, rough-textured cloth, or
similar materials, as these may scratch the surface. Also, never use volatile liquids such as
thinners, benzene, acetone, or any other chemical cleaner to clean. Be sure to use a soft cloth
such as eyeglasses cleaning cloth and wipe off dirt on the surface with it gently. Smooth out
wrinkles on the cloth if necessary before cleaning.
Caution
Always unplug the machine from the power outlet before cleaning the machine. If you accidentally
switch the machine on while cleaning it, you could injure yourself.
Cleaning Inside of the Machine
To prevent ink spots and paper dust from accumulating inside the fax and affecting print quality,
clean the print area of the fax periodically.

Printing Stops Before It Is Completed
Cause
Action
Printing documents with plenty of
photographs or illustrations.
Printing large data such as photos or graphics takes time for the machine and
the computer to process, during which the machine may appear to have
stopped operating.
In addition, when printing data that uses a large amount of ink continuously on
plain paper, the machine may pause temporarily. In either case, wait until the
process is complete.
Note
If you are printing a document with a large printing area or printing multiple
copies of a document, printing may pause to allow the ink to dry.
The machine has been printing
continuously over a long period.
If the machine has been printing continuously for a long time, the Print Head
may overheat. To protect the Print Head, the machine may stop printing at a line
break for a period of time and then resume printing.
In this case, interrupt your print session at a convenient time and turn the
machine off for at least 15 minutes.
Additionally, if the machine has been printing graphics or photos with intense
colors continuously over a period of time, the machine may stop printing to
protect the Print Head. In this case, printing will not resume automatically. Turn
the machine off for at least 15 minutes.
Caution
