For high-quality copies and printouts, use paper that is recommended for this machine. Using other types of paper may cause problems such as paper jams. If you use the type of paper that is not recommended for this machine, contact your local authorized Canon dealer. You can use various types of paper for this machine, however, you may not be able to get the sufficient image quality and paper feeding depending on the paper characteristics (stiffness, thickness, air permeability, smoothness, moisture absorbency, etc.). For the paper thickness, please use plain paper whose thickness is 360 micrometer or less as a reference. If you want to use Synthetic (Polypropylene) paper and Synthetic (Polyester) paper, contact the dealer where you purchased the product or the local authorized Canon dealer. |

If you are using pre-printed paper, bordered paper, or color paper, and the printed image is misaligned vertically as seen from the paper feeding direction, set to 'Off' for <Auto Adjust Left/Right Edge Alignment> in [Paper Settings] in [Preferences] (Settings/Registration). (See "Changing the Auto Adjust Left/Right Edge Alignment" in the User's Guide.) Use paper soon after it is unpacked as the moisture absorption condition of paper may affect the image quality and paper feeding. Wrap any remaining paper in its original package and store it on a flat surface. When the High Capacity Stacker is attached, the minimum paper size that can be fed in the machine is 140 x 182 mm (including the envelopes). Also, the envelopes cannot be stacked on the High Capacity Stacker. |
