This quick start guide describes some of the features of your

S600 printer and how to use them. For more information, view

and/or print the S600 User’s Guide on the Setup Software &

User’s Guide CD-ROM.

Driver features and screen shots described in this guide reflect

Windows®98 and may be different for Windows NT®4.0 and

Windows 2000 users.

What Is a Printer Driver?

What Is a Printer Driver?What Is a Printer Driver?

What Is a Printer Driver?

Most computers require special software to link the software applications you

use to create documents or images with your printer. This software, called a

printer driver, converts information from the application into a format that the

printer can understand. The Canon S600 printer driver also provides other

features such as monitoring the printer’s paper supply and ink levels.

Basic Printing

The S600 can print on paper ranging from

standard copier paper (usually 17–28 lb.) to

specialty media paper and envelopes.

The paper thickness lever is located inside the

front cover, on the printhead holder. It controls

the paper feed for the type and weight of the

media on which you are printing.

For envelopes (see “To load

envelopes:” on page 6), banners

and T-Shirt Transfers.

For regular paper and other media with a left position in the table (see

“Load Limit and Paper Thickness Lever Position” on page 4).

Use the chart on the previous page to ensure that the paper thickness lever is set

correctly for the type of media you are using.

To load paper or other media:

To load paper or other media:To load paper or other media:

To load paper or other media:

1. Make sure the paper thickness lever is set

correctly for the media used.

2. Slide the paper guide completely to the left.

3. Fan the edges of the sheets to remove static

cling and avoid paper jams, then tap the

edges of the stack against a flat surface so

the stack is aligned.

4. Insert the media into the paper rest, with

the print side facing up.

5. Slide the paper guide to the edge of the media until it is firmly in place.

Some papers, especially specialty media, have specific sides for

printing. The print side is usually the glossier side or the brighter

white side.

When using specialty media, do not touch the print side.

You can load up to 100 sheets of plain (17 lb.) paper or 80 sheets

of Canon High Resolution Paper in the paper rest at one time.

Never load the paper above the load limit mark.

To load envelopes:

1. Lift the cover and set the paper thickness lever to the envelope mark. Close

the cover.

2. Slide the paper feed guide to the left.

3. Press down on the corners and sides

of the envelopes to make them as flat

as possible by expelling all of the air.

To avoid paper jams, make sure

envelopes are flat before you load

them into the paper tray.

4. With the address side facing up and

pointed in the direction shown in the

illustration, align the stack with the

right side of the paper rest, then

insert the stack into the printer.

5. Slide the paper guide to the edge of

the envelopes until it is firmly in

place.

Make sure that none of the flaps overlap. If the envelope edges

are not flat, crease them with the side of a pen.

Do not allow more than 10 envelopes to stack on the paper

output tray.
