  1. Ink droplets can be placed with a pitch of 1/4,800 inch at minimum.
  2. Document print speeds are the average of ESAT (Word, Excel, PDF) in Office Category Test for the default simplex mode, ISO/IEC 24734.
    Print speed may vary depending on system configuration, interface, software, document complexity, print mode, page coverage, type of paper used etc.
  3. TWAIN driver (ScanGear) is based on the TWAIN specification V1.9 and requires the Data Source Manager comes with the operating system.
  4. Optical resolution scan is available, only when you use TWAIN Driver.
    Optical resolution is a measure of maximum hardware sampling resolution, based on ISO 14473 standard.
  5. Copy speeds are the average of sFCOT and sESAT, ISO/IEC 29183.
    Copy speeds (ADF) are ESAT of copy in sequence, ISO/IEC 24735.
    Copy speed may vary depending on document complexity, copy mode, page coverage, type of paper used etc. and does not take into account warm-up time.
  6. F4 is possible via custom size settings.
  7. The following media or paper types do NOT support borderless printing:
    Envelope, High Resolution Paper, T-Shirt Transfer and Photo Stickers.
  8. 2.4 Hz and 5 GHz (Wireless LAN IEEE802.11a/ac/b/g/n) is applicable for Taiwan models only.
  9. Please visit https://asia.canon/support to check OS compatibility and to download the latest driver updates.
  10. The performance of the printer may be reduced under certain temperature and humidity conditions.
  11. For the temperature and humidity conditions of papers such as photo paper, refer to the paper's packaging or the supplied instructions.
  12. Acoustic Noise is measured based on ISO7779 standard with default settings.
  13. When copying ISO/JIS-SCID N2 (printed by inkjet printer) on A4 size plain paper using default settings.
  14. Page yields may vary depending on content coverage, print settings, temperature, humidity, and frequency of printing.
  15. Declared yield value is in accordance with ISO/IEC 24711, using the ISO/IEC 24712 colour chart. Values obtained by continuous printing.
    Black and grey dye-based inks are not used when printing under this condition. However, a minimal amount of black and grey dye-based ink is used for maintenance purposes.
  16. Declared yield value is in accordance with ISO/IEC 29102, using the ISO/IEC 29103 chart. Values obtained by continuous printing.
    Black pigment ink is not used when printing under this condition. However, a minimal amount of black pigment ink is used for maintenance purposes.

Disclaimer

  • To maintain optimal printer performance, Canon printer automatically perform cleaning based on its condition. During this cleaning process, a small amount of ink is consumed, which may include all colours of ink.
    [Cleaning Function]
    The cleaning function helps remove air bubbles or clogs from the print head nozzles, preventing degradation in print quality or nozzle blockages. 
  • Replacement parts for printers will be available for five years after production is discontinued. Depending on your model, we may recommend replacing it with a new unit or one that offers similar performance as part of our maintenance service. In such cases, you may find that supplies or accessories for your model are no longer available, or that compatible operating systems may change.
  • To achieve optimal print quality, use the ink within six months of opening.
  • Depending on your device, whether it is a computer or a smartphone and its operating system, the estimated ink level information displayed on your screen may differ from what appears on the printer's operation panel. Additionally, some parts of the estimated ink level message shown on the printer may not be visible or may appear at different times. Canon recommends using the information displayed on the printer's operation panel as your primary reference, noting that this information serves only as a guideline.
  • Depending on the type of paper and print settings, colour ink may still be used even when you print a monochrome document. If any colour of ink runs out, you will need to replace the ink cartridge.
  • You must install ink cartridges of all colours, regardless of whether you are printing in monochrome or colour. If any ink cartridges is not installed, an error will occur, and printing will not be possible.
  • When you use the Canon printer for the first time after installing the bundled ink cartridges, the printer consumes a small amount of ink to fill the nozzles of the print head. As a result, the number of sheets you can be printed with the initial set of ink cartridges is fewer than the subsequent cartridges.
  • The printing costs mentioned in the brochures or on the website are based on consumption data from the second and subsequent ink cartridges, not the first one.
  • For warranty details, please contact a Canon authorised sales representative in your country or region.
  • Please be aware that if a problem arises from using non-genuine ink cartridges (including those refilled with non-genuine ink through methods such as making a hole in the cartridge), a fee will be charged for repairs, even during the warranty period. Keep this in mind when using non-genuine ink.
  • Using non-genuine inks may affect the printer's performance and print quality. In rare cases, where there are no safety concerns, non-genuine inks can cause the print head to overheat and emit smoke due to the absence of certain ingredient found in genuine ink.
    (Note: This does not apply to usage of all non-genuine inks).
