13.4 Note for Customers Who Cut Their Own Paper

Customers who cut their own paper may experience:
• An increase of paper dust in the machine
• Shortening the life of the machine's fixing rollers due to excessive wear from the
rough side of the cut paper
• Paper jams due to paper dust getting into areas of the machine where it is not
meant to be
• Improper paper feeding
• Paper registration inaccuracies
Follow the precautions below to minimize the above issues:
• Have a process in place to regularly make sure that the cutting blades are
sharpened, and that cuts are made as clean as possible.
• Place the paper with the factory mill cut sides facing to the right (leading edge),
and to the front of the machine.
• Pay special attention to the paper grain orientation when cutting it. For more
information on paper grain, see
• The best results for consistency and front to back registration are obtained by
using factory mill cut, digital compatible paper.

13.5 Media Feed Locations

As with all Canon copiers, certain feed locations within the device are capable of
feeding specific media sizes and weights.
When considering media, make sure the media is within the proper size and weight
parameters of the feed location. Once the desired media is selected the
appropriate feed location must be selected.
