Changing the Printer Operation Mode
If necessary, switch between various modes of printer operation.
The procedure for configuring
Custom Settings
is as follows:
1. Make sure that the printer is on, and then select
Custom Settings
from the pop-up menu
on the
Note
• If the computer is unable to communicate with the printer, a message may be displayed because
the computer cannot access the function information that was set on the printer.
If this happens, click
OK
to display the most recent settings specified on your computer.
2. If necessary, complete the following settings:
Ink Drying Wait Time
You can set the length of the printer rest time until printing of the next page begins. Moving the slider
to the right increases the pause time, and moving the slider to the left decreases the time.
If the paper gets stained because the next page is ejected before the ink on the printed page dries,
increase the ink drying wait time.
Reducing the ink drying wait time speeds up printing.
Prevent paper abrasion
The printer can increase the gap between the print head and the paper during high-density printing
to prevent paper abrasion.
Check this check box to prevent paper abrasion.
Align heads manually
Usually, the
Print Head Alignment
function of
Test Print
on the pop-up menu in the Canon IJ
Printer Utility2 is set to automatic head alignment, but you can change it to manual head alignment.
If the printing results of automatic print head alignment are not satisfactory, perform manual head
alignment.
Check this check box to perform the manual head alignment. Uncheck this check box to perform the
automatic head alignment.
Don't detect mismatch of paper settings when printing from computer
When you print documents from your computer and the paper settings in the print dialog and the
paper information registered on the printer do not match, this setting disables the message display
and allows you to continue printing.
To disable detection of paper setting mismatches, select this check box.
3. Apply the settings
Click
Apply
and when the confirmation message appears, click
OK
.
The printer operates with the modified settings hereafter.
