Loading Paper
This section describes how to load paper in the Auto Sheet Feeder and the Front Sheet
Feeder.
„ Print Media to Avoid
Do not use the following types of paper. Using such paper will not only produce
unsatisfactory results, but can also cause the printer to jam or malfunction.
• Folded, curled or wrinkled paper
• Damp paper
• Paper that is too thin (less than 64 gsm or 17 lb)
• Paper that is too thick* (more than 105 gsm or 28 lb)
*non-Canon branded paper
• Picture postcards
• Postcards with an affixed photo or sticker
• Envelopes with a double flap
• Envelopes with pressure seals
• Envelopes with an embossed or treated surface
• Paper with holes (such as Loose-leaf paper)
„ Using the Auto Sheet Feeder and the Front Sheet Feeder
You can load paper in the Auto Sheet Feeder and the Front Sheet Feeder.
When printing small quantities on various print media, loading paper in the Auto Sheet
Feeder is easy and convenient.
Loading paper in the Front Sheet Feeder is suited for printing on paper of regular use. It
is convenient when printing on the same type or a large amount of paper.
By combining the use of the Auto Sheet Feeder and the Front Sheet Feeder, the
following ways of paper feeding are available.
• Changing the paper source to feed different types/sizes of paper
Changing the paper source according to the document size allows you to print
without removing and reloading paper. To change the paper source, use the Paper
Feed Switch on the printer or printer driver. You can also specify the type/size of
paper to be fed from the Front Sheet Feeder with the printer driver. For example, you
3

Basic Printing
can specify that a Letter paper is always fed from the Front Sheet Feeder whenever
you print. So, it is convenient for regular use.
• Continuous printing on the same type/size of paper by using both the Auto Sheet
Feeder and the Front Sheet Feeder together
When paper is loaded in both the Auto Sheet Feeder and the Front Sheet Feeder, you
can choose to feed paper from whichever paper source you like. If the Auto Sheet
Feeder or the Front Sheet Feeder runs out of paper, the paper source automatically
switches to the other one. It is useful for printing a large amount of paper. To
perform this feature you need to set the printer driver.
For detailed description of the printer driver setting, see "UUsing the Auto
Sheet Feeder and the Front Sheet Feeder" in the User’s Guide.

Replacing an Ink Tank
If the print result is not improved after maintenance such as Print Head
cleaning, an ink tank runs out of ink. Replace the ink tank with a new one.
When replacing an ink tank, check the model number very carefully.
The printer will not print properly if the wrong ink tank is used, or installed in
the incorrect position.

Ensure that the printer is turned on, and then open the Front Cover.
The Print Head Holder moves to the left.
2
Remove the empty ink tank.

Insert the ink tank.
(1) Insert a new ink tank into a slot.
(2) Press on the tab until the ink tank snaps firmly into place.
Close the Front Cover.
The Print Head Holder moves to the right.
• To maintain optimal print quality, use an ink tank within six months
of its first use.
Note
• Once an ink tank has been used, do not remove it from the printer
and leave it out in the open. This will cause the ink tank to dry out
and the printer may not function properly if it is reinstalled.
• Color ink consumption may occur even when black-and-white or gray
scale printing is specified.
Color ink is consumed in the head cleaning and deep cleaning,
which are necessary to maintain the printer’s capabilities.
• When an ink tank runs out of ink, replace the ink tank with a new one
immediately.
If printing is continued with no ink in the ink tank, a problem may
occur.

„ How Low Ink Warning Setting Works
The low ink warning notifies you of low ink levels during printing. The Low Ink Warning
has been preset to be automatically displayed.
When you reset the ink counter, it will assume that the ink tank is full regardless of how
much ink actually remains. The reset is the only way to match the counter value with an
actual ink volume. Reset the ink counter when installing a new ink tank.

How to Display Low Ink Warning Correctly
• Reset the ink counter every time you install a new ink tank.
The ink counter cannot work correctly unless you synchronize it with the actual ink
level. The ink counter can only be adjusted when it is reset at the time a new ink tank
is installed.
• Do not reset the ink counter of an ink tank in use.
Synchronization of the counter and the actual ink level will not work properly.
Important If you did not reset the counter when you installed the current ink tanks,
the low ink warning may not function correctly, until the next time you
replace the ink tanks. Also, be sure to treat both counters separately.

Troubleshooting
• PictBridge or Canon Bubble Jet Direct compatible digital cameras can be
connected to your printer for direct printing.
Note
• This section describes errors that are indicated on Canon-brand PictBridge-
or Bubble Jet Direct-compatible cameras. The error messages and
operations may vary depending on the camera you are using.
For errors on non-Canon PictBridge-compatible cameras, count the number
of flashes the POWER lamp on the printer makes and check for the cause of
the error and take the appropriate action. For details, see "Handling Error
Messages" on page 68.
• Connecting a digital camera not compatible with PictBridge or Bubble Jet
Direct makes the PPOWER lamp on your printer flash nine times. In such a
case, unplug the cable connecting the camera to the printer, and press the
RESUME/CANCEL button on the printer.
• A communication time out occurs if printing takes a long time or if it takes
too much time to send data. This may stop printing. In such a case,
disconnect the cable between the printer and the camera, press the
RESUME/CANCEL button on the printer, and reconnect the cable between
the printer and the camera. Then, turn the camera on, if it does not
automatically turn on. If the problem is still unresolved, select some other
photo and check if it can be printed or not.
• The Print Head Nozzles may be clogged if printing becomes faint or colors
are incorrect. See "When Printing Becomes Faint or Colors are Incorrect" on
page 38.
• If the paper is curled or its surface is scratched during printing, make sure
that you are using the correct type of paper. If this error occurs even when
you are using the correct type of paper, select PPrevent paper abrasion on
Custom Settings in the printer driver. See "Print Quality is Poor or Contains
Errors" on page 63.
• To disconnect the cable connected between the digital camera and printer,
follow the procedure below.
1. Disconnect the cable from the printer.
2. Turn off the digital camera.
3. Disconnect the cable from the digital camera.
When disconnecting the cable, be sure to hold the connector by its sides.
• For the errors indicated on the camera and their solution, also refer to the
user’s manual of the camera. For other troubles on the digital camera,
contact the manufacturer.

Safety Precautions
Please read the safety warnings and cautions provided in this manual to ensure that you use
your printer safely. Do not attempt to use printer in any way not described in this manual.
Warning
You may cause an electric shock/fire or damage the printer if you ignore any of
these safety precautions.
Choosing a location
Power supply
Do not place the printer close to flammable solvents such as alcohol or thinners.
Never attempt to plug in or unplug the printer from the power supply when your hands are wet.
Always push the plug all the way into the power outlet.
Never damage, modify, stretch or excessively bend or twist the power cord.
Do not place heavy objects on the power cord.
Never plug the printer into a power socket that is shared with other
equipment (extension lead/cord, 2- or 3- way adapter, etc.).
Never use the printer if the power cord is bundled or knotted.
If you detect smoke, unusual smells or strange noises around the printer, immediately unplug the
printer at the power supply and call for service.
Periodically, unplug the printer and use a dry cloth to wipe off any dust or dirt
collected on the plug and the power outlet. If the printer is placed at a location
exposed to a lot of dust, smoke, or high humidity, the dust collected on the
plug absorbs moisture and may cause insulation failure and fire.
Cleaning the printer
Use a damp cloth to clean the printer. Never use flammable solvents such
as alcohol, benzene or thinners.
If flammable solvents come in contact with electrical components inside the
printer, it could cause a fire or electric shock.
Always unplug the printer from the power outlet before cleaning the printer.
If you accidentally switch the printer on while cleaning it, you could injure yourself or damage the
printer.
Maintaining the printer Do not attempt to disassemble or modify the printer. There are no user serviceable parts inside
the printer.
The printer contains high-voltage components. Never attempt any maintenance procedure not
described in this guide.
Working around the
printer
Do not use flammable sprays near the printer.
This could cause a fire or electric shock if the spray comes into contact with electrical components
inside the printer.

Do not place the printer on a thick rug or carpet.
When moving the printer, carry the printer at both ends.
Power supply
Ensure that the area around the power outlet is kept clear at all times so you
can easily unplug the power cord if necessary.

Do not use an extension lead/ cord.
Never use a power supply source other than the one rated for the printer in the country where you
purchased the printer.
AC 110-120 V, 50/60 Hz
AC 220-240 V, 50/60 Hz
Working around the

Never put your hands or fingers in the printer while it is printing.
Do not place any object on the printer.
Do not place metal objects (paper clips, staples, etc.) or containers of flammable solvents (alcohol,
thinners, etc.) on top of the printer.
If any foreign object (metal or liquid) fall into the printer, unplug the power cord and call for
service.
Print heads and ink tanks For safety reasons store print heads and ink tanks out of the reach of small children.
If a child ingests any ink, consult a doctor immediately.
Do not shake Print Head or ink tanks.
Ink may leak out and stain clothing or the surrounding area.
