lead/cord, 2- or 3-way adapter, etc.). This may result in fire or electrical shock.
Plug the machine into a standard 100-240 V AC, 50/60 Hz (depending on your local
electrical requirements), two-prong* grounded outlet. Operate the machine only from the
type of power source indicated on the machine's label or a fire, electrical shock, or
malfunction may occur. If you are unsure of the type of power available, consult your local
power company.
* The shape of the plug and outlet may vary depending on the country of purchase.
Do not allow the power cord to be near objects that emit heat. The outer cover of the power
cord may melt resulting in fire or electrical shock.
Never use the machine if the power cord is bundled or knotted. Knots in the cord may
result in fire or electrical shock.
If you detect smoke, unusual smells or strange noises around the machine, immediately
unplug the machine at the power supply and contact your local authorized Canon dealer or
the Canon help line.
Using the machine in such conditions may result in fire or electrical shock.
Periodically, unplug the machine and use a dry cloth to wipe off any dust or dirt collected
on the plug and the power outlet.
If the machine is placed at a location exposed to a lot of dust, smoke, or high humidity, the
dust collected on the plug absorbs moisture and may cause insulation failure and fire.
Maintenance
Do not service the machine yourself except as specifically described in this guide. If further
servicing is required, contact your local authorized Canon dealer or the Canon help line.
When storing the machine, choose a location where the machine is not exposed to dust.
Dust accumulation may prevent the machine from operating properly.
Use a damp cloth to clean the machine. Never use flammable solvents such as alcohol,
benzene or thinners. If flammable solvents come in contact with electrical components
inside the machine, it could cause a fire or electrical shock.
Always turn OFF the power and unplug the machine from the power outlet before cleaning
the machine.
If you leave ON or accidentally switch the machine ON while cleaning it, it may result in
injury or damage the machine.

Handling
Do not attempt to disassemble or modify the machine. There are no user serviceable parts
inside the machine.
The machine contains high-voltage components. Never attempt any maintenance
procedure not described in this guide. Incorrect maintenance procedures may damage the
machine, or cause a fire or electrical shock.
Do not drop paper clips, staples, or other metal objects inside the machine. Also do not
spill water, liquid, or flammable substances inside the machine. If these items come into
contact with high-voltage parts inside the machine, it may result in fire or electrical shock.
If these items are dropped or spilled in the machine, turn OFF the power and unplug the
power cord immediately with dry hands. Then contact your local authorized Canon dealer
or the Canon help line.
Do not use flammable sprays near the machine.
This could cause a fire or electrical shock if the spray comes into contact with electrical
components inside the machine.
There are high-voltage components inside the machine. If you are looking inside the
machine to clear paper jams etc., do not allow metal objects such as jewelry to come into
contact with the inside of the machine. Contact may result in burns or electrical shock.
Others
When setting the machine near electric products with fluorescent lighting, separate the

Turning The Machine ON/OFF
1
Press [ON/OFF] to turn the machine ON and OFF. Before turning ON the machine,
make sure the Document Cover is closed.
z Always press [ON/OFF] before disconnecting the power cord. This
Important
ensures the FINE Cartridge is covered to prevent it from drying out.
z If the machine is not used for an extended period of time, we
recommend making black & white and color prints/copies or
performing FINE Cartridge cleaning about once every month to
prevent degradation of the FINE Cartridge.(See page 89)
z The FINE Cartridge has many nozzles in order to produce high-
definition prints. In the same way that the tip of a felt-tip or marker pen
will naturally dry out over time and become unusable even with the cap
in place, the nozzles might become clogged. Periodically printing or
performing FINE Cartridge cleaning can help to prevent this kind of
clogging.
z The power cannot be turned OFF with [ON/OFF] while the machine is
operating.
Note
z Your machine performs a FINE Cartridge cleaning every time you plug
in the machine. This ensures optimum print quality but also consumes
a small amount of ink during the cleaning process. We recommend
turning OFF the power with [ON/OFF].
z The LCD goes out if the machine is not operated for 5 minutes. Press
any button to restore the display. You cannot change the period before
the LCD goes out.

z Do not store or display printouts in hot, damp, or humid conditions. Never expose them to
heat or direct sunlight.
z Store printouts in photo albums, photo frames, or presentation binders to protect them from
direct exposure to air or sunlight.
z Do not mount printouts in an adhesive-type album as you may not be able to remove them.

If you try printing when “?” mark appears, the following message appears and printing stops.
In either case, clicking [OK] cancels the error indication and enables continuation of printing.
However, the error detection function is disabled after the error indication is canceled, therefore,
Low Ink Warning message does not appear later on. When you install a new FINE Cartridge, the
Low Ink Warning is enabled automatically.

Cannot Print Properly From The Digital Camera
The following are possible errors that may occur when printing directly from a digital still camera or
digital video camcorder*, and the countermeasures to eliminate them.
*Hereafter, digital still cameras and digital video camcorders are collectively called a digital camera
or camera.
z PictBridge-compatible digital cameras can be connected to your machine for
direct printing.
Note
z This section describes errors that may be indicated on Canon-brand
PictBridge-compatible cameras. The error messages and operations may
vary depending on the camera you are using. If you are using a non-Canon
PictBridge-compatible camera and not sure how to clear the printer error from
the camera, confirm the message displayed on the LCD of the machine and
clear the error. For clearing errors from the machine, see “An Error Message
Is Displayed On The LCD” on page 98.
z A communication time out occurs if printing takes a long time or if it takes too
long to send the data. This may stop the printing. In such cases, disconnect
the cable between the machine and the camera, and reconnect the cable
between the machine and the camera. Then, turn the camera on, if it has not
automatically turned itself on. If the problem is still unresolved, select some
other photo and check if it can be printed or not.
z Your PictBridge-compatible device may need to be switched to printing mode
before it is connected to the machine, depending on the model of the device.
Also, it may need to be turned on manually or switched to replay mode after
being connected to the machine. Refer to the instruction manuals supplied
with your camera and take the necessary steps before connection.
z The FINE Cartridge nozzles may be clogged if printing becomes faint or the
colors are incorrect. See “When Printing Becomes Faint Or Color Is Incorrect”
on page 84.
z If the paper is curled or its surface is scratched during printing, make sure that
you are using the correct type of paper.
z For errors indicated on the camera and their solutions, also refer to the user’s
manual of the camera. For other problems associated with a digital camera,
contact the manufacturer of the camera.

Canon U.S.A., INC. LIMITED WARRANTY (USA Only)
The limited warranty set forth below is given by Canon U.S.A., Inc. ("Canon USA") with respect to
the new or refurbished Canon-brand product ("Product") packaged with this limited warranty, when
purchased and used in the United States only.
The Product is warranted against defects in materials and workmanship under normal use and
service (a) for a period of one (1) year from the date of original purchase when delivered to you in
new condition in its original container or (b) for 90 days from the date of original purchase for
refurbished Products. Defective parts or a defective Product returned to a Canon USA repair facility
or a Canon USA Authorized Service Facility ("ASF"), and proven to be defective upon inspection will
be (a) repaired; (b) exchanged for new or comparable rebuilt, recovered, remanufactured, repaired
and/or recycled parts or; (c) exchanged for a refurbished Product, as determined by the Canon USA
repair facility or the ASF. Warranty repair or replacement shall not extend the original warranty period
of the Product. A dated proof of purchase is required at the time of warranty service. A copy of your
dated bill of sale will satisfy this requirement. This warranty does not cover any accessories, or any
consumables, such as paper or ink cartridges, as to which there shall be no warranty or
replacement.
This limited warranty shall only apply if the Product is used in conjunction with compatible
computers, peripheral equipment and software. Canon USA shall have no responsibility for such
items except for compatible Canon brand peripheral equipment covered by a separate warranty
("Separate Warranty"). Repairs of such Canon brand peripheral equipment shall be governed by the
terms of the Separate Warranty. Non-Canon brand equipment and software that may be distributed
with the Product are sold "as is" and without warranty of any kind by Canon USA, including any
implied warranty regarding merchantability or fitness for a particular purpose, and all such warranties
are disclaimed. The sole warranty, if any, with respect to such non-Canon brand items is given by the
manufacturer or producer thereof.
This limited warranty covers all defects encountered in normal use of the Product and does not apply
in the following cases:
(a) Loss of or damage to the Product due to abuse, neglect, mishandling, improper packaging by
you, alteration, accident, electrical current fluctuations, improper use, failure to follow operating
or maintenance instructions in, or environmental conditions prescribed in, Canon USA's user's
manual or other documentation, or services performed by someone other than a Canon USA
repair facility or ASF. Without limiting the foregoing, dropping the Product, scratches, and
abrasions will be presumed to have resulted from misuse, abuse or failure to operate the
Product as set forth in the user's manual or other documentation for the Product.
(b) Use of parts, media, software or supplies (other than those sold by Canon USA), including non-
Canon ink cartridges or refilled ink cartridges, that cause damage to the Product or cause
abnormally frequent service calls or service problems.
(c) If the Product has had its serial number or dating defaced, altered or removed.

InstantExchange Service **
A Canon Customer Care Center or ASF technician will attempt to diagnose the nature of the problem
and, if possible, correct it over the telephone. If the problem cannot be corrected over the telephone,
and you elect the InstantExchange option, a reference number will be issued to you. You will be
asked for the Product serial number and other information pertaining to your defective Product and
for a ship-to location for the replacement Product (must include street address).
The Canon USA repair facility will ship out the replacement Product, via 2nd day Air freight service,
prepaid by Canon USA. After receipt of the replacement Product (with instructions and a prepaid
waybill), follow the enclosed instructions on how to ship the defective Product to the Canon USA
repair facility. The defective Product must be returned in the shipping carton in which the
replacement Product was packed and include the reference number, A COPY OF YOUR DATED
PROOF OF PURCHASE (BILL OF SALE), and a complete explanation of the problem. DO NOT
INCLUDE ANY OTHER ITEMS WITH THE DEFECTIVE PRODUCT IN THE RETURN SHIPPING
CARTON, AND BE SURE TO RETAIN YOUR PRINTHEAD AND INK CARTRIDGE(S) AND
TANK(S).
InstantExchange Service expedites, usually by the second business day, the exchange of a
defective Product with a replacement Product, which will normally be shipped the same day if your
request for this service is by 3 p.m. E.T. Monday through Friday, except holidays (three (3) business
day InstantExchange Service for Alaska and Hawaii). Canon USA does not guarantee expedited
shipping service in the event of the occurrence of factors beyond its reasonable control.
The replacement Product you receive may be a refurbished or reconditioned unit and will be covered
for the balance of the period remaining on your original limited warranty. NOTE THAT BY USING
THIS SERVICE YOU WILL KEEP THE REPLACEMENT PRODUCT THAT IS SENT TO YOU.
CANON USA WILL RETAIN THE DEFECTIVE PRODUCT THAT YOU ORIGINALLY PURCHASED,
WHICH SHALL BECOME THE PROPERTY OF CANON USA. InstantExchange warranty program
service is available only during the express limited-warranty period for your Product and only in the
continental United States, Alaska and Hawaii during such period.
This limited warranty gives you specific legal rights, and you may also have other rights, which vary
from state to state.
* Support program specifics are subject to change without notice.
** InstantExchange warranty service is subject to the availability of refurbished or new replacement
units.
