Selecting the print media
The correct choice of media is particularly important for colour
printing.
The Canon BJC-55 Series is capable of printing not only on plain paper,
but also on envelopes, transparencies, and other media. Please use the
following guidelines when selecting a print media for your documents.
• Plain copier paper provides good results, and paper with cotton fibre
is also suitable for colour printing.
• For important presentations or documents that include intensive
graphics and colour, use High Resolution Paper HR-101, High Gloss
Film HG-101, Glossy Photo Paper GP-301, or similar products. The
printer will produce even more vivid colours with these media. When
printing on High Gloss Film or Glossy Photo Paper, print on the
glossy side only.
• Before printing on High Gloss Film HG-101 or Back Print Film BF-
102, set one sheet of plain paper in front of the printer where the
printed film will be ejected. This insulates the ejected sheet from the
build-up of static electricity between the surface of the desk or work
table under the printer and the film. A static charge could jam the film
and prevent it from ejecting correctly.
• Use Glossy Photo Cards FM-101 when creating photo greeting cards.
This media allows you to make beautiful, borderless cards. When
printing on this media, be sure to print on the side with the glossy
finish.
• For overhead presentations, use Transparencies CF-102. Do not use
