„ Replacing Ink Tanks
When ink tanks run out of ink, replace them using the following steps.
Important
Handling Ink
z To maintain optimal printing quality, we recommend the use of specified Canon brand ink tanks.
Refilling ink is not recommended.
z Once you remove an ink tank, replace it immediately. Do not leave the machine with ink tanks
removed.
z Replace empty tanks with new ones. Inserting partially used ink tanks may cause the nozzles to
clog. Furthermore, with such tanks, the machine will not be able to inform you when to replace
the tanks properly.
z Once an ink tank has been installed, do not remove it from the machine and leave it out in the
open. This will cause the ink tank to dry out, and the machine may not operate properly when it
is reinstalled. To maintain optimal printing quality, use an ink tank within six months of first use.
z Color ink may be consumed even when printing a black-and-white document or when black-
and-white printing is specified.
Color ink is also consumed in Print Head Cleaning and Print Head Deep Cleaning, which may
be necessary to maintain the machine’s performance. When an ink tank is out of ink, replace it
immediately with a new one.

Keeping the Best Printing Results
To avoid drying of the Print Head and clogging of the nozzles, note the following.
Note
z Ink may blur depending on the paper in the following cases;
– Printed area is traced with a highlight pen or paint-stick
– Printed area is stained with water or sweat
z If the print head nozzles get clogged, printouts will become faint or particular colors will not be printed
properly. For details, see “When Printing Becomes Faint or Colors Are Incorrect” on page 56.
„ When You Turn Off the Machine
Follow the procedure below to turn off the machine.
(1) Press the ON/OFF button to turn off the machine.
(2) Confirm that the Power lamp has gone out.
This takes a few seconds or as long as around 30 seconds.
(3) Unplug the power cord from the wall outlet.
If you are using a power outlet strip, you can switch it off instead.
When you press the ON/OFF button to turn off the machine, the machine automatically puts a
protective cap on the Print Head to prevent the ink from drying. If you remove the power cord or
switch off the power outlet strip before the Power lamp goes out, this capping will not be done
properly, causing the Print Head to dry and clog.
„ When You Are Not Using the Machine for a Long Time
When you are not using the machine for a long time, print or copy in both black & white and in
color, or perform Print Head Cleaning, about once a month to prevent degradation of the Print
Head.
Numerous nozzles are installed in the Print Head for high-precision printing. Just as the
uncapped tip of a ballpoint pen or marker becomes dry and unusable if it is not used for a long
period of time, the print head nozzles become blocked by dried ink. Periodically printing or
cleaning the Print Head can prevent this blockage.

Print Results Not Satisfactory
If the print result is not satisfactory such as white streaks, misaligned lines, and uneven colors,
confirm the paper and print quality settings first.
z Check 1: Do the page size and media type settings match the size and
type of the loaded paper?
When these settings are incorrect, you cannot obtain a proper print result. If you are printing a
photograph or an illustration, incorrect paper type setting may reduce the quality of printout color.
Also, if you print with an incorrect paper type setting, the printed surface may be scratched. In
borderless printing, uneven coloring may occur depending on the combination of the paper type
setting and the loaded paper.
z Check 2: Did you set the print quality setting appropriately?
Select a print quality option suitable to the paper and image for printing. If you notice blurs or
uneven colors, increase the print quality setting and try printing again.
* When printing from a PictBridge compliant device, set the print quality setting by using the
Operation Panel on the machine. You cannot make this setting from a PictBridge compliant
device.
* You cannot change the print quality setting when printing from a wireless communication
device.
The method to confirm the paper and print quality settings differs depending on what you do with
your machine.

z Repair or Exchange Service Options:
In the event service is required for the Product during the limited warranty period, Canon USA
offers two hardware support options:
Authorized Service Facility Carry-In / Mail-In Service
Canon USA’s Carry-In/Mail-In Service provides repair or exchange, at Canon USA’s option,
through Canon USA’s Authorized Service Facility (ASF) network. The name and telephone
number of the ASF(s) near you may be obtained from Canon USA’s Web site at
www.canontechsupport.com or by calling the Canon USA Customer Care Center at 1-800-828-
4040, or any time while speaking to a technical support person. A Product covered by this limited
warranty will be repaired or exchanged, as determined by Canon USA, and returned without
charge by the ASF.
InstantExchange Service **
A Canon Customer Care Center or ASF technician will attempt to diagnose the nature of the
problem and, if possible, correct it over the telephone. If the problem cannot be corrected over the
telephone, and you elect the InstantExchange option, a reference number will be issued to you.
You will be asked for the Product serial number and other information pertaining to your Product
and for a ship-to location for the replacement Product (must include street address).
The Canon USA repair facility will ship out the replacement Product prepaid by Canon USA. After
receipt of the replacement Product (with instructions and a prepaid waybill), follow the enclosed
instructions on how to ship your product to the Canon USA repair facility. Your Product must be
returned in the shipping carton in which the replacement Product was packed and include the
reference number, A COPY OF YOUR DATED PROOF OF PURCHASE (BILL OF SALE), and a
complete explanation of the problem. DO NOT INCLUDE ANY OTHER ITEMS WITH THE YOUR
PRODUCT IN THE RETURN SHIPPING CARTON, AND BE SURE TO RETAIN YOUR
PRINTHEAD, INK CARTRIDGE(S) AND TANK(S).
InstantExchange Service exchanges your Product with a replacement Product, which will normally
be shipped the same day if your request for this service is by 3 p.m. E.T. Monday through Friday,
except holidays. Canon USA does not guarantee same day shipment in the event of the
occurrence of factors beyond its reasonable control. The replacement Product you receive may be
a refurbished or reconditioned unit and will be covered for the balance of the period remaining on
your original limited warranty. NOTE THAT BY USING THIS SERVICE YOU WILL KEEP THE
REPLACEMENT PRODUCT THAT IS SENT TO YOU. CANON USA WILL RETAIN THE
PRODUCT THAT YOU ORIGINALLY PURCHASED, WHICH SHALL BECOME THE PROPERTY
OF CANON USA. InstantExchange warranty program service is available only during the express
limited-warranty period for your Product and only in the continental United States, Alaska and
Hawaii during such period.
This limited warranty gives you specific legal rights, and you may also have other rights, which vary
from state to state.
* Support program specifics are subject to change without notice.
** InstantExchange warranty service is subject to the availability of refurbished or new replacement
units.
