  1. Document print speeds are the average of ESAT (Word, Excel, PDF) in Office Category Test for the default simplex mode, ISO/IEC 24734.
    Photo print speed is based on the default setting using ISO/JIS-SCID N2 on Photo Paper.
    Plus Glossy II and does not take into account data processing time on host computer.
    Print speed may vary depending on system configuration, interface, software, document complexity, print mode, page coverage, type of paper used etc.
  2. TWAIN driver (ScanGear) is based on the TWAIN specification V1.9 and requires the Data Source Manager comes with the operating system.
  3. Optical resolution is a measure of maximum hardware sampling resolution, based on ISO 14473 standard.
  4. The fastest speed in Hi-Speed USB on Windows PC. Transfer time to computer is not included.
  5. Copy speeds are the average of sFCOT and sESAT, ISO/IEC 29183.
    Copy speeds (ADF) are ESAT of copy in sequence, ISO/IEC24735.
    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. Please visit https://asia.canon/support to check OS compatibility and to download the latest driver updates.
  7. The performance of the printer may be reduced under certain temperature and humidity conditions.
  8. For the temperature and humidity conditions of papers such as photo paper, refer to the paper's packaging or the supplied instructions.
  9. Acoustic Noise is measured based on ISO 7779 standard with default setting.
  10. Print: When printing ISO/JIS-SCID N2 on A4 size plain paper using default settings.
  11. Page yields may vary depending on content coverage, print settings, temperature, humidity, and frequency of printing.
  12. Declared yield value is the estimated value based on Canon individual test method using the ISO/IEC 19752 monochrome chart and continuous printing simulation with the replacement ink bottle after initial setup.
  13. The Economy mode reduces the ink consumption by lowering the density. More pages can be printed using this mode.
  14.  Declared yield value is in accordance with ISO/IEC 24711, using the ISO/IEC 24712 colour chart. Values obtained by continuous printing.
    This product is a monochrome inkjet printer.
    Print colour document with optional colour cartridge.
    Once the installed colour cartridge is empty, please replace with the contact protector or a new colour cartridge.

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.
  • Even when black-only or greyscale printing is selected, colour inks may still be consumed depending on the printing material and driver settings. When the ink level in any tank falls below the lower limit line, Canon recommends refilling that tank with the corresponding colour ink.
  • During the initial printer setup, a portion of ink is used to fill the print head's nozzles. As a result, the page yield of the initial bundled set of ink bottles will be lower than that of the subsequent set.
  • The estimated page yield and/or print cost stated in brochures, catalogues, websites, and similar materials are based not on the initial set of bundled ink bottles, but on subsequent sets after the print head nozzles have been filled with ink from the initial set of ink bottles.
  • For warranty details, please contact a Canon authorised sales representative in your country or region. The warranty covers only the main printer body and excludes consumables such as print media and ink/ink bottles even during the warranty period.
  • Please note that if the printer malfunctions or breakdown due to the usage of non-genuine ink bottles, repair charges will apply, even if the claim is made within the warranty period.
  • 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).
