Please note that the term “printing area” represents both the recommended area for optimum print quality and the entire area where the machine can technically print from your computer. Printing area (light shade): Canon recommends that you print within this area. ■ Paper MAX.
Loading Paper This section describes how to load paper in the cassette and the multi-purpose feeder. CAUTION When loading paper, take care not to cut your hands on the edges of the paper. IMPORTANT Do not load paper from the back of the machine with the cassette in place. Doing so may damage the paper feeding assembly inside the machine.
Page 35
While holding the lock release lever on the paper guide at the rear of the cassette, slide the paper guide to the mark indicating the desired paper size. ● When Loading Legal Size Paper: ❑ Pull the blue tab (A) and extend the cassette (B). Set the paper guide to LTR (C). IMPORTANT If the paper guide is not adjusted correctly for the size of the paper, the quality of your printouts may be adversely affected.
Page 36
Load the paper stack in the cassette with the print side down. When you load paper with a logo on, position the paper with the print side down (logo side) and load it so that the top of the paper feeds first in the cassette. While holding the lock release lever on the paper guide on left side of the cassette, slide the paper guide to the mark indicating the desired paper size.
Make sure the paper stack does not exceed the load limit mark (A) and it is loaded under the hooks (B) on the paper guides. IMPORTANT • Do not load different size and type of paper at the same time. •...
Page 38
Slide the paper guides to the mark of the desired paper size. IMPORTANT If the paper guides are not adjusted correctly for the size of the paper, the quality of your printouts may be adversely affected. Insert the paper square into the multi-purpose feeder with the print side up.
Specify the size and the type of the paper you load. For details on how to specify the paper size and type, see “Specifying the Paper Size and Type (Common for Cassette and Multi-Purpose Feeder),” on p. 2-10. Loading an Envelope in the Multi-Purpose Feeder Use the multi-purpose feeder when you want to copy or print an envelope one by one.

Specifying the Paper Size and Type (Common for Cassette and Multi-Purpose Feeder) Specifying the Paper Size At the factory, the paper size has already been set to <LTR>. Each time you change the paper size you load in the cassette or the multi-purpose feeder, it is necessary to specify the paper size according to the following.
Specifying the Paper Type <PLAIN PAPER> is selected as the default paper type. When using paper other than plain paper, you can specify the paper type according to the following. Specifying the paper type can prevent poor copy quality, or the printout not being printed correctly.
Orientation of the Document and the Paper Loading When you load or place a document in the ADF or on the platen glass, the orientation of the document and the orientation of the paper in the cassette or in the multi-purpose feeder are as shown below.
Selecting the Paper Output Area Open the face up cover located on back side of the unit for face up paper output, or close the face up cover and pull out the output tray located on the front of the unit for face down paper output.
Paper Type Heavy Paper Transparencies Envelopes Face Down Paper Output Area The paper is delivered with the printed side down on the output tray. Paper is stacked in printed order. Close the face up cover, and pull out the output tray. IMPORTANT •...
Face Up Paper Output Area The paper is delivered with the printed side up from the face up paper output at the rear of the machine. This way is convenient for printing on transparencies, or envelopes which tend to curl, because the paper is delivered straight through out of the machine. Open the face up cover.

Maintenance This chapter explains how to clean the machine, replace the toner cartridge, and repack and transport the machine. Periodic Cleaning Your machine requires little periodic maintenance. This section describes the necessary cleaning procedures for your machine. CAUTION • When cleaning the machine's exterior or the platen glass, be sure to disconnect the power cord before cleaning the machine.
Cleaning the Scanning Area Wipe the scanning area (shaded area) with a clean, soft, lint-free cloth moistened with water, then wipe with a clean, soft, dry, lint-free cloth. Cleaning the ADF Area Black lines may appear in copies when the ADF is used to feed documents. This is caused by paste, ink, correction fluid, or other foreign matters in the read area of the platen glass (shaded area).
Page 86
IMPORTANT • Paste, ink, correction fluid, and other foreign matter can soil the platen glass when you send a document through the ADF while the paste, ink, or correction fluid on the document is still wet. This is what causes black lines on copies. Whenever you load a document in the ADF, always check to make sure that any paste, ink, or correction fluid that is on the document is completely dry.
When to Replace the Cartridge The cartridge is a consumable item and should be replaced when the toner runs out. If white streaks or light bands appear on the printouts, the toner is running low. NOTE Before handling the cartridge, see the precautions in “Handling and Storing the Cartridge,”...

Rock the cartridge 5 or 6 times to distribute the toner evenly. Place the cartridge on a flat and stable surface. Fold the tab (A) on the sealing tape (B) as shown below, and pull it out straight while supporting the cartridge. Make sure that the tab itself is detached from the cartridge.
Page 99
Hold the cartridge and align the projections (A) on both sides of the cartridge to the guides (B) in the machine, then gently slide the cartridge into the machine as far as it will go. Be sure to position the arrow mark (C) on the cartridge towards the inside of the machine.
Repacking and Transporting Your Machine Be sure to unplug the power cord before transporting the machine. If the machine is likely to be subjected to vibration (e.g., when transporting over long distances), the following precautions should be taken. If you do not follow these precautions, the machine may be damaged or the quality of your printouts may be adversely affected.
Carrying the Machine by the Sides Pull out the cassette completely, and remove the extension cover. Push in the output tray, and close the document feeder tray. Grip the handles on both sides of the machine and lift it carefully, as shown in the illustration above.
Troubleshooting This chapter describes the problems you might encounter when using the machine and their remedies. It also explains what to do if you cannot solve the problem by yourself. Clearing Jams This section describes how to remove jammed paper. Removing Jammed Paper from Inside the Machine When print media jams inside the machine, the LCD displays <REC.
Open the front cover. Remove the cartridge. IMPORTANT • Remove watches and any bracelets or rings when touching the inside of the machine. These items might be damaged if they come into contact with the parts inside the machine. • To avoid possible damage to the machine, do not touch the pins (A) near the left end of the transfer roller (B).
Page 104
NOTE Do not expose the cartridge to light for more than 5 minutes. If necessary, put the cartridge in its original protective bag or wrap it with a thick cloth to prevent exposure to light. Open the face up cover (A) and push down the green paper release levers (B) on both sides of the face up paper output.
Page 105
If the leading edge of the paper is visible but has not entered the imaging area, pull the paper forwards and roll it inwards. IMPORTANT • Do not pull the jammed paper forward from the cassette. It may cause a machine malfunction.
Page 106
Gently pull the jammed paper between the output rollers until the leading edge emerges from the machine. Carefully pull the jammed paper straight out through the rollers. If the jammed paper is badly folded, similar to the folds of an accordion, ease the jammed paper loose and then pull it out of the machine.
Page 107
Hold both sides of the jammed paper and slowly pull it out in the direction of the arrow. ● When Feeding Paper from the Cassette: ● When Feeding Paper from the Multi-Purpose Feeder: Push the paper release levers back to their original position and close the face up cover.
IMPORTANT After you replace the cartridge and close the front cover, the machine should be ready for operating. If the machine returns to the ready state for operating, troubleshooting has been successful. If the machine does not return to the ready state for operating, confirm that the paper release levers are pushed back to their original position, and check to see that jammed paper is not left in the machine.
