Assorted Paper Starter Kit
If you would like to try some of the papers described above, look for Canon's
Starter Kit. It contains an assortment of five paper types.
If you are printing in an application outside Windows, your software application
or printer driver must support mirror image printing in order to use Back Print
Film or T-Shirt Transfers.
Paper Guidelines
When selecting or loading paper, please remember the following:
Attempting to print on damp, curled, wrinkled, or torn paper can cause paper
jams and poor print quality.
Use cut-sheet paper only. You cannot use multipart paper.
Whenever possible, hold the paper by the edges and avoid touching the print
side. Any scratching or soiling of the print side will adversely affect the print
quality.
When storing paper, put the paper back in its original package and avoid
locations that are exposed to direct sunlight or that are subject to high
temperatures or humidity. To avoid bending or wrinkling the paper, store the
package on a flat surface.
After printing, do not touch the print side until the ink is dry. If water gets on
the printed media, do not touch the print side until the media is dry.
When using graph paper, the lines may not match because the 1/6-inch line
spacing of the printer is slightly less than that of graph paper.
If the print density of your page is very high, light paper stock may curl
slightly due to the large amount of ink. If you need to print dense graphics,
try printing on thicker paper.
Do not use thick papers that do not meet the specifications for this printer.
Printing with a paper that is thick enough to come in contact with the print
head nozzles may damage the BJ cartridges.
