Selecting Special Settings
Special settings are provided that allow you to select the amount of ink used in steps. You can fix lackluster colors
or bleeding ink by selecting special settings where the amount of ink used is suitable for the paper you are using.
The special settings are organized as follows so that they can be used as follows depending on the type of black
ink and the media type.
Type of special settings Type of black ink Example of applicable paper
"Special 1" to "Special 5" BK (photo black) Glossy Paper
"Special 6" to "Special 10" MBK (matte black) (*1) Coated Paper, Matte Paper
*1: There may be cases of using not only with MBK, but with a mixture of BK ink.
"Special 1" and "Special 6" use the least amount of ink, with the amount of ink used increasing through 5 steps as
the number increases up to "Special 5" and "Special 10" which use the greatest amount of ink. Although colors
become more vivid as the amount of ink used increases, bleeding also occurs more easily. We recommend that
you try in order starting from "Special 1" or "Special 6" while checking the state of the printing.
Note
• If you cannot obtain sufficiently good image quality by selecting the general-purpose settings or special settings,
you can create settings as suitable for the paper you are using by using the "Add Custom Paper" function in the
Media Configuration Tool. For details,
see "Printing on Paper Other Than Genuine Paper and feed confirmed Paper
by Adding a Media Type."

Printing on Paper Other Than Genuine Paper and feed confirmed Paper by Adding a Media Type
The Add Custom Paper function in the Media Configuration Tool is provided as a method for improving print quali-
ty and feed properties over printing paper other than genuine Canon paper and feed confirmed paper using the
general-purpose settings. This can be expected to improve properties such as print quality because it allows you to
configure settings such as the maximum amount of ink to use and the height of the printhead depending on the
characteristics of the paper you are using. Furthermore, printing can be performed by adding the settings created
using this function to the printer control panel and printer driver as a new media type.

• We recommend that you use an ICC profile created using commercially available profile creation software in
order to perform color management accurately on paper other than genuine Canon paper and feed con-
firmed paper. The created ICC profile can be registered to the printer driver and printed. For details,
see
"Matching Sheet (Windows)."
