Paper Handling

One of the most important things you can do to assure the best possible

printing performance of your MultiPASS C3000 is to select the correct

paper. Your MultiPASS C3000 produces letter quality print on most

plain bond papers, including cotton bond and photocopying papers; it

does not require special ink jet papers. However, the print quality varies

with different paper types. Be sure to test a type of paper before you

purchase a large quantity.

Selecting Paper Types

papers, and typical letterhead. Always use paper without curls, folds,

staples, or damaged edges.

Glossy Photo Paper

Canon Glossy Photo Paper GP-201 is a high gloss, thicker paper that

produces the look and feel of a photograph. Use this paper with the

BC-22 Photo BJ Cartridge to produce photo-realistic prints from your

paper loaded.)

High Resolution Paper
