Warnings

Take note of the following warnings when added custom paper other than Canon genuine paper and feed confirmed
paper to the printer driver and the printer itself.
About the Cutter
• Depending on the paper, there are types that cannot be cut by the cutter unit, and types that speed deterioration of
the blade and cause damage to the cutter. For thick paper, hard paper, etc. do not use the cutter unit, and instead cut
the roll paper using scissors, etc. after printing. In this case, select User Cut as the Automatic Cutting Settings in
the Roll Paper Settings dialog box.
Note
• If the cutter is damaged, contact your Canon dealer for assistance.

• Refer to "Specifying the Cutting Method for Rolls" for details on the methods for cutting roll paper. (See

About the Printhead

rubbing against the paper, configure the Vacuum Strength in the Step 5: Configure the amount of ink used
dialog box as follows.
• For paper-based media such as Heavyweight Coated Paper: Set to Strong or Strongest
• For film-based media such as CAD Tracing Paper: Set to Standard, Strong, or Strongest
