Printout Procedure using the canon printer
Now let us start with the further procedure in the installation of the printer i.e. to take a printout through the canon.com/ijsetup printer. To take a printout one has to look after various parameters after buying a printer. These parameters include Unboxing the product as well as sorting the various component, Downloading the drivers necessary, Installing the drivers, Loading the cartilage and drum, loading print papers, and the actual printout procedure. The first 3 steps are explained earlier. Now let’s see the further steps.
Loading the cartilage as well as a drum
- It is a simple and easy process. Everything in this process is ready but the only problem occurs when the ink in the cartilage dries up.
- When you unbox the printer for the first time, there are chances that the cartilage and the drum of the printer are not pre-installed in it. So you have to do those things.
- Unbox the cartilage as well as a drum from the respective boxes.
- Then there is a tray in the drum where there is a space to place the cartilage in it.
- Make sure the cartilage completely fits into the drum space.
- ij.start.canon provides readymade cartilage with ink already placed in it.
- Now put the drum with the cartilage into the drum space of the printer.
- To do this open the upper cover of the printer and the shield of the printer. There you will see a space with two inclined lines.
- Place the two ends over the two inclined lines and push the drum tray at an angle of 45 degrees.
- The drum dray is slanted and places itself over the space.
- Make sure after you place the drum a small knock sound appears. This sound confirms that the drum and the cartilage are placed well in their place.
Loading print papers in the canon.com/ijsetup printer
Some minute mistakes take place while you have a printout such as misplacing the paper. These mistakes lead to the displacement of the print from the desired place. So to avoid these type of the mistake the proper loading of the papers in the tray is mandatory. We provide the proper procedure to load the papers in the tray.
- Open the front paper tray cover from your printer and observe all the marks available on the printer tray.
Now slightly pull the paper supporter towards your side and make sure that the pulling does not harm any part of the printer - Then open the pack or rim of the paper and make sure that the papers are not stuck to one another. If you observe such a thing then take the rim and bend it from both edges several times.
- Now look at the mark of the pile of the paper in the paper tray and fill the papers in such a way that the mark remains visible to you.
- Now see both the edges of the paper which are at the rear side so that they are not bent. This may lead to the paper jam condition.
- Then look at the sides of the paper and adjust the side-adjuster according to the size of the paper. Don’t push it roughly as it will bend the sides of the paper and there will be a dome in between. This may lead to a misprint or else sometimes there will be no print.
- Put the front adjuster and push the tray slightly behind so that there will be no bent in between.
- This finishes the loading of the papers into the tray. Go for the print as it is explained in the steps given below.
