*1 Paper with a Model Number is Canon genuine paper. Refer to the instruction manual supplied with the paper for detailed information on the printable side and notes on handling paper. For information on the page sizes available for each Canon genuine paper, visit our website. You may not be able to purchase some Canon genuine papers depending on the country or region of purchase. Paper is not sold in the US by Model Number. Purchase paper by name.
*2 Maximum number of sheets that can be ejected and stacked on the Front Tray when feeding paper from the Rear Tray.
When feeding paper from the Front Tray, remove each sheet as it is ejected.
*3 Proper feeding of paper may not be possible at the maximum capacity depending on the type of paper or environmental conditions (either very high or low temperature or humidity). In such cases, reduce the number of paper you load at a time to less than half (100% recycled paper can be used).
*4 14" x 17" / 36 x 43 cm paper cannot be loaded in the Rear Tray.
*5 Feeding this paper from the Front Tray can damage the printer. Always load in the Rear Tray.
*6 We recommend that you remove the previously printed sheet from the Front Tray before continuously printing to avoid blurs and discoloration.
*7 When loading paper in stacks, the print side may become marked as it is fed or paper may not feed properly. In this case, load one sheet at a time.
*8 If you are using Fine Art Paper "Museum Etching" or Fine Art Paper Premium Matte, you cannot print in the 1.38 inches / 35 mm margin on the top and bottom edges according to the direction of printing. If you select a special page size for Fine Art Paper in the printer driver, a limit is set to prevent printing in the 1.38 inches / 35 mm margin on the top and bottom edges of the paper. We recommend checking the printing area in the preview screen before printing.
For details, refer to the on-screen manual: Advanced Guide.
Canon genuine media is produced and managed to get optimal print quality. We recommend using Canon genuine media.
*9 Feeding this paper from the Rear Tray can damage the printer. Always load in the Front Tray.
*10 You can easily specify print settings for sticker paper with Easy-PhotoPrint EX provided on the Setup CD-ROM. Install it on your computer.
