„ Replacing FINE Cartridges
When FINE Cartridges run out of ink, replace them using the following steps.
Important
Handling FINE Cartridges
z Do not touch the electrical contacts or Print Head Nozzles on a FINE Cartridge. The machine
may not print out properly if you touch it.
(A)
(B)
(A) Electrical Contacts
(B) Print Head Nozzles
z To maintain optimal printing quality, we recommend the use of specified Canon brand FINE
Cartridges.
Refilling ink is not recommended.
z Once you remove a FINE Cartridge, replace it immediately. Do not leave the machine with FINE
Cartridges removed.
z Replace empty cartridges with new ones. If you insert FINE Cartridges that has been removed
once, the machine may not print out properly due to some reasons such as clogging of the
nozzles.
Furthermore, with such cartridges, the Low Ink Warning may not be displayed properly.
z Once a FINE Cartridge has been installed, do not remove it from the machine and leave it out in
the open. This will cause the FINE Cartridge to dry out, and the machine may not operate
properly when it is reinstalled. To maintain optimal printing quality, use a FINE Cartridge within
six months of first use.
Note
z If a FINE Cartridge runs out of ink, you can print with either Color or Black FINE Cartridge, in
whichever ink remains, only for a while. However the print quality may be reduced compared to
when printing with both cartridges. Canon recommends to use new FINE cartridges in order to
obtain optimum qualities.
Even when printing with one ink only, print with leaving the empty FINE Cartridge installed. If
either of the Color FINE Cartridge or Black FINE Cartridge is not installed, an error occurs and
the machine cannot print.
For information on how to configure this setting, refer to the PC Printing Guide on-screen
manual.
z Color ink may be consumed even when printing a black-and-white document or when black-and
white printing is specified.
Color ink is also consumed in Print Head Cleaning and Print Head Deep Cleaning, which may
be necessary to maintain the machine’s performance.

See “Aligning the Print Head” on page 31.
Keeping the Best Printing Results
To avoid drying of the Print Head and clogging of the nozzles, note the following.
Note
z Ink may blur depending on the paper in the following cases:
– Printed area is traced with a highlight pen or paint-stick.
– Printed area is stained with water or sweat.
z If the print head nozzles get clogged, printouts will become faint or particular colors will not be printed
properly. For details, see “When Printing Becomes Faint or Colors Are Incorrect” on page 26.
„ When You Turn Off the Machine
Follow the procedure below to turn off the machine.
(1) Press the ON button to turn off the machine.
(2) Confirm that the Power lamp has gone out.
This takes a few seconds or as long as around 30 seconds.
(3) Unplug the power plug from the wall outlet.
If you are using a power outlet strip, you can switch it off instead.
When you press the ON button to turn off the machine, the machine automatically puts a
protective cap on the Print Head to prevent the ink from drying. If you remove the power plug or
switch off the power outlet strip before the Power lamp goes out, this capping will not be done
properly, causing the Print Head to dry and clog.
„ When You Are Not Using the Machine for a Long Time
When you are not using the machine for a long time, print or copy in both black & white and in
color, or perform Print Head Cleaning, about once a month to prevent degradation of the Print
Head.
Numerous nozzles are installed in the Print Head for high-precision printing. Just as the
uncapped tip of a ballpoint pen or marker becomes dry and unusable if it is not used for a long
period of time, the print head nozzles become blocked by dried ink. Periodically printing or
cleaning the Print Head can prevent this blockage.
If you have not used the machine for a long time, print out the nozzle check pattern to check the
print head condition before printing. See “Printing the Nozzle Check Pattern” on page 27.

Print Results Not Satisfactory
If the print result is not satisfactory such as white streaks, misaligned lines, and uneven colors,
confirm the paper and print quality settings first.
z Check1: Do the page size and media type settings match the size and
type of the loaded paper?
When these settings are incorrect, you cannot obtain a proper print result. If you are printing a
photograph or an illustration, incorrect paper type setting may reduce the quality of printout color.
Also, if you print with an incorrect paper type setting, the printed surface may be scratched. In
borderless printing, uneven coloring may occur depending on the combination of the paper type
setting and the loaded paper.
z Check2: Did you set the print quality setting appropriately?
Select a print quality option suitable to the paper and image for printing. If you notice blurs or
uneven colors, increase the print quality setting and try printing again.
The method to confirm the paper and print quality settings differs depending on what you do with
your machine.
To copy by operating the
machine
Confirm by using the Operation Panel on the machine. See
“Making Copies” on page 20.
To print from a computer
Confirm by using the printer driver.

See “Media Types You Cannot Use” on page 14 to make sure that the paper
you are using is suitable.
If the paper is curled, see “Paper is curled.” on page 51 to correct paper curl.
z When performing Borderless Printing, print quality may be reduced at the top
and bottom edges of the paper. Make sure that the paper you are using is
suitable for Borderless Printing.
For details, refer to “Printing Area” in the User’s Guide on-screen manual.
Paper is curled.
For Plain Paper
Turn the paper over and reload it to print on the other side.
Leaving the paper loaded in the Rear Tray for a long time may cause the
paper to curl. If this happens, load the paper with the other side facing up. It
may resolve the problem.
We recommend putting unused paper back into the package and keep them
on a level surface.
For Other Paper
If you are using paper with either any of the corners or the whole printing
surface curled, the paper may become dirty, not feed properly, or both. Use
such paper after correcting paper curl as follows.
(1)With the printing side (A) facing up, cover the paper with a fresh sheet of
plain paper to avoid staining or scratching the surface.
(2)Roll up the paper in a direction opposite to paper curl as seen below.

Note
Depending on the media type, the paper may be smudged or may not be fed
properly even if it is not curled.
In such case, follow the procedure described above in “For Other Paper” to curl
the paper before printing.
This may improve the print result.

even for the types of paper to set the lever to the left. In this case, set the Paper
Thickness Lever to the right.
* Reset the Paper Thickness Lever to the left when you finish printing. If the
lever is not set back to the left, the inside of the machine is more likely to get

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

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

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
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 prepaid by Canon USA.

enclosed instructions on how to ship your product to the Canon USA repair facility. Your Product

normally be shipped the same day if your request for this service is by 3 p.m. E.T. Monday
through Friday, except holidays. Canon USA does not guarantee same day shipment in the
event of the occurrence of factors beyond its reasonable control. The replacement Product you

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.

from state to state.
