About a Variety of Print Media

This section describes the types of print media you can use with the printer. For more details, refer
to the Reference Guide.
Ordinary Paper
Plain Paper
Standard photocopier paper can be used if its weight is within the range of 64 to 105 g/m
BJ plain paper (LC-301) can also be used.
To prevent paper jams and other problems, never use media heavier than 105 g/m
Envelopes
The standard European DL and US Commercial #10 sizes can be used. Do not use other envelope sizes.
Canon offers a range of special paper and films for the reproduction of superb images in vibrant colours. For
best results when printing photographs, use the Photo BJ Cartridge.
Canon Special Media
High Resolution Paper HR-101S
Provides more vivid colours than plain paper. Ideal for printing photographs or business documents that
include large numbers of colour illustrations and graphs.
High Gloss Photo Film HG-201
A film sheet with a higher gloss than Glossy Photo Paper GP-301. You can print high-resolution pho-
tographs by using the colour BJ cartridge.
Back Print Film BF-102
This white translucent film is ideal for displays that use backlighting to show a printed image in the same
way as slides and stained glass.
Please note that the original image is reversed horizontally (mirrored) when printed.
Transparencies CF-102
These can be used to prepare materials for use with an overhead projector.
To avoid paper jams and other problems, never use transparencies intended for use with other Canon BJ
printers (e.g., CF-101), laser beam printers or photocopiers.
Glossy Photo Paper GP-301
Slightly heavier than High Resolution Paper because a gloss coating is applied to the print side of the
paper. Provides near-photographic quality images with the glossy feel of a photographic print.
Glossy Photo Cards FM-101
A special card made of the same stock as Glossy Photo Paper GP-301. You can obtain a Photo Card
printed over its entire area by printing the image so that it extends beyond the perforations and then trim-
ming off the unwanted white margins.
Use this card when you want to print a colour or a photo over the entire card.
Banner Paper
This banner paper allows you to print on up to six connected sheets of A4 or Letter size paper to create
party or advertising banners.
T-Shirt Transfer TR-201
This is a media for creating iron-on prints for T-shirts. You can make an original T-shirt simply by printing
your favourite photograph or illustration onto this media.
Please note that the original image is reversed horizontally (mirrored) when printed.
