MEMORY FULL

Cause 1

The machine's memory is full because the collate copy or function was set when a large document is 

loaded.

Remedy

Divide the document and copy each part separately. 
If <MEMORY FULL> appears while scanning documents by using the ADF, the document to be 
scanned stops in the ADF. In this case, follow the procedure in “Removing Jammed Paper from the 
ADF,” on p. 9-23 to clear the jammed paper in the ADF.

Cause 2

You tried to reserve more than 10 copy jobs.

Remedy

The machine can store up to 10 copy jobs in memory. Wait until the current copy job completes, or 
use [Status Monitor] to delete the reserved copy jobs in memory.

PREPARE NEW

PREPARE NEW DRUM

Cause

The drum cartridge need to be replaced soon.

Remedy

Prepare a new drum cartridge to be replaced.

PRINT NOT GUARANTEED
CHECK 

∗

 CARTRIDGE

Cause

The installed toner cartridge cannot guarantee the print quality.

Remedy

Cartridges that have low toner or made by third party vendors may cause machine malfunction. 
Install a new cartridge available from Canon.

∗

: indicates either “C”, “M”, “Y”, or “K”.

PRINTER DATA ERROR

Cause

When you canceled a job being processed, the next job on the spooled job list may have been also 
deleted.

Remedy

Check if the job that immediately follows the job being processed has been deleted on the spooled 
job list. Disconnect the USB cable and connect it again, or unplug the machine and plug it in again to 
clear the error message.
