Loading paper in the MX330

Solution

Loading Paper



Important



You cannot print on postcards affixed with photos or stickers.


Always load paper in portrait orientation (A). Loading paper in landscape orientation (B) can cause the paper to be jammed.

Note


We recommend using genuine Canon photo media when printing photographs.


100% recycled paper can be used.


If you cut plain paper to 4" x 6" / 101.6 x 152.4 mm, 5" x 7" / 127.0 x 177.8 mm, or 2.13" x 3.39" / 54.0 x 86.0 mm (credit card-size) for a trial print, it can cause paper jams.

Loading Paper

1. Flatten the four corners of the paper before loading it.



Note


Align the edges of paper neatly before loading. Loading paper without aligning the edges may cause paper jams.


If paper is curled, hold the opposing curled corners and gently bend them in the opposite direction until the paper becomes completely flat. See Paper is curled..


To avoid curling, handle paper as follows.


- When you do not print, remove unused paper from the Rear Tray, put them back into the package, and keep it on a level surface.


- Take out only the necessary number of sheets from the package, just before printing.

2. Load the paper.

(1) Open the Paper Support, raise it, then tip it back.

(2) Open the Paper Output Tray gently, and open the Output Tray Extension.

(3) Slide the Paper Guides (A) to open them, and load the paper in the center of the Rear Tray WITH THE PRINT SIDE FACING YOU

Important

Always load paper in the portrait orientation (B). Loading paper in the landscape orientation (C) can cause paper jams.


(4) Slide the Paper Guides (A) to align them with sides of the paper stack.

Do not slide the Paper Guides too hard. The paper may not be fed properly.


Note:

Do not load sheets of paper higher than the Load Limit Mark(D).


After loading paper

When using the machine to copy or print without a computer, select the size and type of the loaded paper in Page size and Media type of the settings screen in each mode.

When printing with a computer, select the size and type of the loaded paper in Printer Paper Size (or Paper Size) and Media Type in the printer driver.

Loading Envelopes

You can print on European DL and US Comm. Env. #10-sized envelopes.

The address is automatically rotated and printed according to the envelope's direction by specifying with the printer driver properly.

Important
You can only print on envelopes with the computer.
You cannot use the following envelopes.
- Envelopes with an embossed or treated surface
- Envelopes with a double flap (or sticker flaps)
- Envelopes whose gummed flaps are already moistened and adhesive

  1. Prepare envelopes.

    Press down on all four corners and edges of the envelopes to flatten them.

If the envelopes are curled, hold the opposite corners and gently twist them in the opposite direction.


If the corner of the envelope flap is folded, flatten it.

Use a pen to press the leading edge in the inserting direction flat and sharpen the crease.



The figures above show a side view of the leading edge of the envelope.
Important
The envelopes may jam in the machine if they are not flat or the edges are not aligned. Make sure that no curl or puff exceeds 0.1 inches / 3 mm.
  1. Load envelopes.
(1) Open the Paper Support, raise it, then tip it back.

(2) Open the Paper Output Tray gently, and open the Output Tray Extension.

(3) Slide the Paper Guides (A) to open them and load the envelopes in the center of the Rear Tray WITH THE ADDRESS SIDE FACING YOU.
The folded flap of the envelope will be faced down on the left side.
Up to 10 envelopes can be loaded at once.

(4) Slide the Paper Guides (A) to align them with sides of the envelopes.
Do not slide the Paper Guides too hard. The envelopes may not be fed properly.

(B) Rear side

(C) Address side

  1. Specify the settings in the printer driver.

    (1) Select Envelope in Commonly Used Settings (or Media Type).

    (2) Select the size for envelopes.

Select DL Env. or Comm. Env. #10 in the Envelope Size Setting window.

Select DL Envelope or #10 Envelope in Paper Size.
(3) Select Landscape in Orientation.
Important
If you do not specify Envelope Size Setting (or Printer Paper Size/Paper Size) or Orientation properly, the address will be printed upside down or will be turned to 90 degrees.
Note
In Windows, if the print result is upside down, select Rotate 180 degrees in Additional Features with the printer driver.
