- About Chlorine-free paper
Chlorine-free paper can be used with this machine.
- To prevent paper jams, do not use the following paper types.
- Wrinkled or creased paper
- Curled or rolled paper
- Torn paper
- Damp paper
- Very thin paper
- Paper printed by a thermal transfer printer (Do not copy on the reverse side.)
- The following paper types do not print well:
- Highly textured paper
- Very smooth paper
- Glossy paper
- Make sure that the paper is free of dust, lint, and oil stains.
- Make sure to test print before purchasing large quantities of copy paper.
- Keep the paper wrapped in its original package (unopened or opened) and stored in a cool, dry place until ready to use. Make sure to keep it on a flat surface.
- Store paper stacks in a place where temperatures are somewhere between 64.4 to 75.2°F (18 to 24°C) and humidity is somewhere between 40 % to 60 % RH.
If you print on damp paper, the following problems may occur.
- Steam is emitted from the machine's output area.
- Water droplets form on the back side of the operation panel and in the output area.
Moisture evaporates from damp paper due to the heat generated inside the fixing unit (it is most likely to occur at low room temperatures). This is not a malfunction, but you can prevent this by using a stack of new unopened paper.
Should you smell something burning, immediately turn OFF the machine, unplug the power plug from the AC power outlet, and contact your local authorized Canon dealer or the Canon help line. Continued use may lead to a fire or electrical shock.
