Avoid using ADF to scan the same document 
more than 30 times. When scanned repeatedly, 
documents can become folded or torn, which 
may cause paper jams.
If the feeder rollers are soiled from scanning a 
document written in pencil, clean them. (See

Pull out the paper cassette.
2 
Hold the paper cassette with both hands 
and remove it from the machine.
Make sure to take the paper cassette out of the

while the paper cassette is partially pulled out, the 
paper cassette may fall, resulting in damage to the 
machine or personal injury.

Hold the lock release lever of the side 
paper guides (A) and slide the guides to 
the mark for the size of the paper to be 
loaded. The side paper guides move 
together.
Make sure to set the guides to the mark for the 
size of the paper to be loaded correctly. If the 
guides are positioned incorrectly, it may cause 
paper jams, dirty prints, etc.
A6 size paper cannot be loaded.

In the Multi-Purpose Tray
If you are making prints on transparencies, labels, 
non-standard size paper, or envelopes, load them 
into the multi-purpose tray.
Note the following points when using the multi-purpose tray:
Paper Quantity: one to approximately 50 sheets (21 lb 
(80 g/m
2))
Paper Size: 3" × 5” to 8 1/2” × 14” (76.2 × 127 mm to 216 × 
356 mm )
Paper Weight: 16 to 51 lb (60 to 190 g/m
2)
Paper which has been rolled or curled must be 
straightened out prior to use, to allow the paper to feed 
smoothly through the multi-purpose tray (allowable curl 
amount: less than 3/8”
  (10 mm) for normal paper, less than 
1/4” (5 mm) for heavyweight paper).
Depending on the paper storage conditions, it may not be 
possible to feed some paper into the multi-purpose tray.
Do not load different size/type paper at the same time.
If you load multiple sheets of heavyweight paper into the 
multi-purpose tray, a paper jam may occur depending on the 
type of heavyweight paper. If this happens, load only one 
sheet of heavyweight paper at a time.
When printing on special types of paper, such as heavyweight 
paper or transparencies, make sure to correctly set the paper 
type, especially if you are using heavyweight paper. If the type 
of paper is not set correctly, it could adversely affect the 
quality of the image. Moreover, the fixing unit may become 
dirty and require a service repair, or the paper could jam.
If you are printing on the back side of printed paper, the 
edges of the printed paper may become dirty.
If you are printing on envelopes, do not allow more than 5 
envelopes to accumulate in the output tray. Always empty the 
output tray once 5 envelopes have accumulated.
Envelopes may be creased in the printing process.
For high quality printouts, use paper recommended by 
Canon.
For details on paper types that can be used with this machine, 
see “Paper Requirements,
” on p. 2-6.
