Loading Paper into the MP Tray

For high-quality printouts, we recommend using Canon standard 16 to 43 lb (60 to
2
163 g/m ) weight paper for the MP tray.
IMPORTANT
• Using print media that does not meet the paper's requirements may cause severe paper
jams, or result in the excessive mechanical wear of the machine.
• Do not use the following paper in the MP tray:
- Moist paper
- Paper that is wavy, curled, or damaged
- Folded, clipped, or stapled paper
- Paper with cut-outs or perforations
- Paper containing materials that melt, vaporize, offset, discolor, or emit dangerous
fumes at a temperature of 374˚F (190˚C) or higher
• Avoid pressing or applying excessive force on the MP tray, as this may cause damage.
• The paper stack must not exceed the paper limit mark.
• Do not load different sizes of paper in the MP tray at the same time.
• Do not add paper to the MP tray if paper is already loaded; incorrect paper feeding, or a
paper jam may occur. Only add paper when the MP tray is empty.
