> Genuine Canon Paper
|

For other paper, please contact the respective paper manufacturer after reading the instruction manuals supplied with the paper.
|
> Handling the Paper
|
-
Handle all paper carefully and avoid moist environment and contact with water. If the paper will be used in a humid environment, perform lamination or other appropriate treatments after printing.
-
Handle all paper carefully, being careful not to rub or damage it. We recommend wearing gloves when handling paper.
-
Handle paper so as to keep the print surface free of sweat and grease from hands. This may affect the printing quality.
-
After printing, allow ink to dry before handling. We recommend keeping printed documents separate, not stacked, until they are dry.
-
Paper may stretch or shrink from changes in humidity or other environmental factors. Allow ample time for the paper to adjust to the environment before use.
-
After use, remove paper from the printer if environmental changes are expected and store it in the bag.
|
> Loading Rolls
|
Unaligned roll edges, stains and tape marks may lead to faulty paper feeding.
If the roll edge is curled, straighten the curled edge before loading the roll.
|
> Ejecting Roll Paper
|
Depending on the condition of paper after ejection, ejected sheets may impede ejection of the next sheet or damage other sheets. Remove each sheet after ejection.
|
> If Paper Cannot be Selected
|
If the type of paper loaded cannot be selected on the control panel or in the printer driver, try specifying it as Special 1, Special 2, and so on. Note that higher numbers in this setting enable more vivid colors but may also cause colors to run together.
|
> Cutting Options for Rolls That Take Time for Ink to Dry (Eject Cut)
|
Ink takes longer to dry on paper for which Auto Cutting is labeled "Eject cut" in the Roll Specification section. If you use automatic cutting after printing and the document drops, ink may rub off the printed surface. Support the document after printing as you wait for the printer to cut it.
For detailed instructions, refer to the printer's User Manual.
|
> HP-GL/2
|
Paper types marked with "Yes" in the HP-GL/2 column support HP-GL/2 output.
For detailed instructions, refer to the printer's User Manual.
|
> Operating Environment
|
If used in other than the recommended environment, your printer may develop the following problems: Be sure to conduct printing in the recommended operating environment.
<Low Humidity Environment (below 40%)>
-
Paper becomes curled or wrinkled.
-
Paper and the printhead are more likely to touch each other, resulting in a scratched print surface or damaged printhead.
-
The cut printed matter sticks to the printer and will not fall down (film media).
-
Paper sticks to the printer, making its transfer impossible and preventing its normal ejection (film media).
-
Uneven printing (film media)
<High Humidity Environment (over 60%)>
-
Printed matter will not dry.
-
Wavy paper surface
-
Cut edges are ragged (fabric media).

Photo Paper
|
Having a gloss like photographic paper for silver halide photos,
Glossy Photo Paper
is suitable for high-definition photo images. This paper is resin-coated, preventing problems from ink absorption and ensuring a flat finish.
Semi-Glossy Photo Paper
is glossy white paper less reflective than regular glossy photo paper. The soft finish of this paper is subdued, for minimal glare. Its low reflectivity makes it a good choice for display panels and presentation graphics at exhibitions, or for point-of-purchase displays.

Proofing
|
Proofing paper supports the color reproduction gamut for proof offset printing, providing color comparable to a print finish. It is best suited for color proofing print for printing tasks.
Newsprint for proofing offers a look and feel close to newsprint and supports a wide color reproduction gamut.
Thanks to its low cost, it is also applicable to test printing.
