Replacing FINE Cartridges
When FINE Cartridges run out of ink, replace them using the following steps.
Handling FINE Cartridges 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 To maintain optimal printing quality, we recommend the use of specified Canon brand FINE Cartridges. Refilling ink is not recommended. Once you remove a FINE Cartridge, replace it immediately. Do not leave the machine with FINE Cartridges removed. 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. 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.
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. 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 machines performance.
Make sure that the machine is turned on, lift the Scanning Unit (Printer Cover) with both hands, then pull the Scanning Unit Support (A) down into place.
The FINE Cartridge Holder moves to the left. (A)
Do not hold the FINE Cartridge Holder to stop or move it. Do not touch the metallic parts inside the machine.

If the Scanning Unit (Printer Cover) is left open for more than 10 minutes, the FINE Cartridge Holder moves to the right. Close and reopen the Scanning Unit (Printer Cover) to return the holder to the left.
Remove the empty FINE Cartridge.
(1) Push down the FINE Cartridge.
(2) Remove the FINE Cartridge.
Handle FINE Cartridges carefully to avoid staining clothing or the surrounding area. Discard empty FINE Cartridges according to the local laws and regulations regarding disposal of consumables.
Prepare the replacement FINE cartridge.
(1) Unpack a new FINE Cartridge and remove the orange protective tape (A) gently.
Handle FINE Cartridges carefully to avoid staining your clothes or surrounding work area. Do not reattach the protective tape once you have removed it. Discard it according to the local laws and regulations regarding disposal of consumables. 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. Be careful not to stain your clothes and hands with ink on the removed protective tape.
Install the FINE Cartridge.
(1) Insert a new FINE Cartridge all the way into the appropriate slot. The Black FINE Cartridge should be installed into the left slot ( B ) and the Color FINE Cartridge should be into the right slot ( C ). B C
(2) Push up the FINE Cartridge until it clicks into place.
The machine cannot be used unless both the FINE Cartridges are installed.
Lift the Scanning Unit (Printer Cover) slightly to set the Scanning Unit Support back to its original position, and then gently close the Scanning Unit (Printer Cover). Caution
Be sure to hold the Scanning Unit (Printer Cover) firmly, and be careful not to get your fingers caught.
If the error message is still displayed after the Scanning Unit (Printer Cover) is closed, see An Error Message Is Displayed on the LCD on page 76. When you start printing after replacing the FINE Cartridge, Print Head Cleaning is performed automatically. Do not perform any other operations until Print Head Cleaning finishes. If the straight line is misaligned or the Print Head position is misaligned, align the Print Head position. See Aligning the Print Head on page 62.
Keeping the Best Printing Results
To avoid drying of the Print Head and clogging of the nozzles, note the following.
Ink may blur depending on the paper in the following cases: Printed area is traced with a highlight pen or paint-stick, or Printed area is stained with water or sweat. 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 57.

Inside of the machine is dirty.
To prevent the inside of the machine from getting stained, set the page size correctly. Printing on inappropriate type of paper. Check to see if the paper you are printing on is not too thick or curled. See Media Types You Cannot Use on page 11. 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 Users 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.
(3)Check to see that the paper curl is within approximately 0.08 to 0.2 inches / 2 to 5 mm (B) in height.
We recommend printing curl-corrected paper one sheet at a time.
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. Inappropriate Paper Thickness Lever setting. Adjust the position of the Paper Thickness Lever according to the type of paper you are printing on. See Paper Handling on page 10. Depending on the printing content, the printing surface may become scratched 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 dirty due to the wider clearance between the print head and the loaded paper. It may also reduce print quality.
If the corners or edges of the paper are smudged, try to print with the Paper Thickness Lever set to the right. Printing graphics with the intensity setting set too high. Especially if you are using plain paper to print images with high intensity, the paper may absorb too much ink and become wavy, causing paper abrasion. When copying, see Changing the Copy Settings on page 17 and reduce the INTENSITY setting. Then try printing again. When printing from your computer, refer to Print Results Not Satisfactory in the Users Guide on-screen manual. If you are printing beyond the recommended printing area of your printing paper, the lower edge of the paper may become stained with ink. Resize your original document in your application software. For details on recommended printing area, refer to Printing Area in the Users Guide on-screen manual.

Paper Does Not Feed Properly
Printing on inappropriate type of paper. Paper feed roller is dirty.
Check to see if the paper you are printing on is not too thick or curled. See Media Types You Cannot Use on page 11. Clean the paper feed roller. Cleaning the paper feed roller will wear the roller, so perform this procedure only when necessary. For details on cleaning, see Cleaning the Paper Feed Roller (Roller Cleaning) on page 72. Make sure of the following when you load paper in the machine. When loading two or more sheets of paper, align the edges of the sheets before loading. Always load the paper in portrait orientation in the Rear Tray, regardless of the printing orientation. Load the paper with the print side facing UP. Align the paper stack against the right side of the Rear Tray and slide the Paper Guide so that it just touches the left edge of the stack. For details on loading paper, see Loading Paper on page 12. Make sure that the paper stack does not exceed the load limit. However, proper feeding of paper may not be possible at this maximum capacity depending on the type of paper or environmental conditions (either very high or low temperature and humidity). In such cases, reduce the sheets of paper you load at a time to around half. For details on loading paper, see Loading Paper on page 12. Make sure that there are no foreign objects in the Rear Tray. When printing on envelopes, see Loading Envelopes on page 14, and prepare the envelopes before printing. Once you have prepared the envelopes, load them in the machine in portrait orientation.
