Storing Recording Paper
Use only paper recommended by Canon or paper of similar quality, and store it
carefully. For instructions on how to load the recording paper, see “Loading Paper
into the Paper Cassettes,” on p. 1-40, and “Loading Paper into the MP Tray,” on p.
2-15.
Recommended Paper
We recommend using paper made by Canon with this machine.
IMPORTANT
• Before buying large quantities of paper, other than Canon recommended paper, test it
with the machine to make sure it is reliable.
• Use only plain white paper. Do not use perforated paper.
• Paper that is either too smooth or rough may reduce the print quality, or cause paper
jams.
Storing the Paper Supply
If paper is stored improperly, it can affect the quality of the printouts. Store unused
paper in its package to protect the paper.
IMPORTANT
• Do not store paper on the floor where the humidity is higher.
• To prevent excessive paper curl, do not stack the paper too high.
• Do not expose the stored paper supply to direct sunlight.
NOTE
• If humidity in the surrounding area is higher than normal, store the paper in a specially
designed storage box.
• If paper is moved to a location with an extreme temperature difference, store the paper in
the new location for at least one day before you use it.
Quality: Use plain bond, typewriter quality without curls, folds, or rough edges.
