There are two steps recommended for getting the best output for your printed
documents:
• Set the printer thickness lever inside the printer cover for the media used.
(See “Load Limit and Paper Thickness Lever Position” on page 4.)
• Select the correct media setting in the printer driver from your computer.
(See “Chapter 2: Advanced Print Features” on page 9.)

For optimum results, Canon recommends that you use genuine Canon media
with your S300 printer. Follow the instructions that come with any specialty
media on storing, handling and printing.
Specialty media available for use with the S300 include:
• Canon High Resolution Paper
• Canon Transparencies
• Canon Banner Paper
• Canon Glossy Photo Paper
• Canon Photo Paper Pro
• Canon Glossy Photo Cards
• Canon High Gloss Photo Film
• Canon T-Shirt Transfers
For instructions on loading and handling specialty media,
see the instructions that come with that media type or see
the S300 User’s Guide on the Setup Software & User’s Guide
CD-ROM.
Handle media carefully by its edges. Dirt or fingerprints on the print surface
will adversely affect print quality.
