General Paper Guidelines

Paper Types You Cannot Use
Do not use: Folded, creased, curled, or wrinkled paper Envelopes with double flaps, or with pressure seals Moist paper Paper with holes (e.g. punched holes) Very thin paper (less than 17 lb. or 64 g/m2) Very thick paper (more than 28 lb. or 105 g/m2) other than genuine Canon paper Postcards with photographs or stickers adhered to them Envelopes made with embossed or treated surfaces

Handling Paper

Hold the paper as close as possible to its edges and try not to touch the print surface. The print quality will deteriorate if the print surface is damaged or becomes dirty. Do not touch the print surface until the ink has dried. Some paper may curl and the print surface may smudge if you have used a large amount of ink for printing. Paper that tends to curl is not recommended for printing photographs or graphics. Use it for printing mainly text. If the paper is curled, uncurl (flatten) it before printing. Place the paper back into its packet when not using it, and store out of direct sunlight in a place where the temperature and humidity are low. If the printed area is traced with a highlight pen or paint-stick or stained with water or sweat, ink may blur.

Knowing When To Replace A FINE Cartridge
It is important to identify the empty Cartridge using the LCD/LED and replace it. Should missing characters or white streaks appear despite sufficient ink levels, see When Printing Becomes Faint Or Color Is Incorrect on page 75.

When Ink is Low

<BLACK INK LOW> or <COLOR INK LOW> appears on the LCD (MP180) / the Black/Color Ink Lamp lights (MP160) when ink becomes low. Obtain a replacement tank as soon as possible.

When Ink is Empty

<CHECK INK> appears on the LCD (MP180) / <E> and <4> appear alternately on the LED (MP160) when ink becomes empty during printing. Printing will resume as soon as the FINE Cartridge is replaced and the Scanning Unit is closed. Press [Stop/Reset] to cancel the current print job. Press [OK] (MP180) / [Black] or [Color] (MP160) to resume printing with an empty FINE Cartridge. When printing is finished, replace the FINE Cartridge immediately. If you continue printing with an empty FINE Cartridge, it will be a cause of trouble. * Be sure to press [OK] (MP180) / [Black] or [Color] (MP160) with all the FINE Cartridges installed. Printing does not resume if any of the FINE Cartridges are left uninstalled. * If you continue to print with an empty FINE Cartridge, the ink level will not be detected correctly.
Checking the Ink Level (MP180)
You can check the current ink level by pressing [COPY], [SCAN] or [MEMORY CARD]. The LCD will display the ink level for a few seconds. Ex:

COPY MODE COL

(1) Indicates the remaining ink volume at four different levels.
If an error message is displayed on the LCD/LED, a FINE Cartridge error has occurred and the machine cannot continue to print. See An Error Message Is Displayed On The LCD/LED on page 86.
What Is A Low Ink Warning?
The Low Ink Warning is the ink counter calculating the remaining level of ink and advising you that the FINE Cartridges are running out of ink during printing. The ink counter assumes the ink is full when a new FINE Cartridge is installed, and then starts the remaining level of ink. In this instance, if an old FINE Cartridge is installed, a message that the remaining level of ink cannot be detected appears.
How to Check the Ink Level
Open the [Printer Properties] dialog box. Click the [Maintenance] tab and then click [View Printer Status]. Canon IJ Status Monitor appears. It also appears automatically during printing.
