/ 54.0 x 86.0 mm (credit card-size) for a trial print, it can cause paper jams.

You cannot print on postcards affixed with photos or stickers.

When Printing on Plain Paper
z
You can use general copy paper or Canon’s Super White Paper. When printing on both sides,
we recommend Canon’s Super White Paper Double-Sided.
Paper size:
– Standard sizes: A4, B5, A5 (Auto Sheet Feeder only), Letter, and Legal (Auto Sheet Feeder
only)
– Non-standard sizes for the Auto Sheet Feeder: 2.13" x 3.39" to 8.5" x 23" / 54.0 x 86.0 mm to
215.9 x 584.2 mm
Paper weight: 17 to 28 lb / 64 to 105 gsm
z
You can load up to 150 sheets of plain paper (17 lb / 64 gsm, 0.52 inches / 13 mm in height) in
the Auto Sheet Feeder and up to 110 sheets of plain paper (17 lb / 64 gsm, 0.39 inches / 10 mm
in height) in the Front Feeder. 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 (around 0.2 inches / 5 mm in paper stack height).
z
Do not stack more than 50 sheets in the Paper Output Tray.
When Printing on 5" x 7", 4" x 6", or 2.13" x 3.39" (Credit Card-sized) paper
