Change the paper type (Mac OS X)

To set the type of the paper to be used for printing, following the steps below.

Note: Confirm that the cable is connected and the printer is powered on before continuing.

1. From the File menu, select 'Print' to open the Print dialog.
   
   
   
   
2. In the Printer pop-up menu, select the printer you are using.
   
   
   
   
   
   
3. In the third pop-up menu from the top, select 'Quality & Media'.
   
   
   
   
   
   
4. From the 'Media Type' pop-up menu, select the paper type to be used for printing. After selecting the paper type, click 'Print' to perform printing.
   
   
   
   Note: If non-Canon photo paper is being used, try setting the Media Type to the 'Photo Paper Plus Glossy' or 'Other Photo Paper' setting. Many third-party paper manufacturers provide instructions / settings to be used with Canon printers on their Web sites or packaged with the paper. For best results use genuine Canon photo papers.
   
   
5. Changing the paper type is completed.
