❍ Remove all staples, paper clips, and the like before feeding the document. ❍ Make sure any glue, ink, or correction fluid on the paper is completely dry before feeding the document. ❍ Make a photocopy of any document that will not feed into the MultiPASS C3000. You can then feed the copy. ❍ Do not feed documents with pages that are different sizes or of different thicknesses.
❍ Insert the document face-down (letterhead first) into the ADF until you hear a beep. Introduction Feed the document. ❍ Adjust the document guides to the width of the document. A4 LTR The MultiPASS C3000 automatically feeds the pages one by one from the bottom. If you have problems feeding multiple page documents, insert the pages one at a time into the ADF. This stacks the pages on a slant so they feed correctly into the ADF. (Do not attempt to stack more than 20 sheets in the ADF.
Printing With the 2 MultiPASS C3000 This chapter describes how to use the MultiPASS C3000 to print your documents. Once you have installed the MultiPASS Desktop Manager, you can use the MultiPASS C3000 for all your printing needs.
Paper Handling One of the most important things you can do to assure the best possible printing performance of your MultiPASS C3000 is to select the correct paper. Your MultiPASS C3000 produces letter quality print on most plain bond papers, including cotton bond and photocopying papers; it does not require special ink jet papers. However, the print quality varies with different paper types. Be sure to test a type of paper before you purchase a large quantity.
create cards, invitations, announcements, and more. Bubble Jet Paper (water resistant) The Canon Bubble Jet Paper LC-301 has been developed for high quality printing with minimal or no smearing or running when in contact with water or damp surfaces, making it a good choice for damp or rainy environments. The paper is specially coated and printable on both sides. (Select Plain Paper in the printer driver when you have this paper loaded.
Paper Guidelines When selecting or loading paper, please remember the following: ❍ Attempting to print on damp, curled, wrinkled, or torn paper can cause paper jams and poor print quality. ❍ Use cut-sheet paper only. You cannot use multipart paper. ❍ When using graph paper, the lines may not match because the 1/6-inch line spacing of the printer is slightly less than that of graph paper. ❍ If the print density of your page is very high, light paper stock may curl slightly due to the large amount of ink.
Printing a Document This procedure describes the general steps required for printing from various Windows applications. The exact steps for printing a document may vary depending on the application program you are using. Refer to your software applications documentation for the exact printing procedure. 1 ❍ Start the program you are using to create the document, and open the document you want to print. Printing Start your 2 ❍ Choose Print Setup from the File menu. PTR_PTR.
Printer Setup Within Windows You can use the MultiPASS C3000 with all your Windows 95 or Windows 3.1 applications. Be sure to set the MultiPASS C3000 as the default printer for all your Windows operations. Most of your printing operations are controlled by your software application. The following sections describe how you set certain options directly from the printer driver; you only need this information if your application does not control printing.
Using the Printer Driver in Windows 95 The printing options are displayed on these Windows 95 tabs: General, Details, Paper, Graphics, and Setting. See Using the Windows Tabs section (page 2-8) for details. N For detailed information on any of the printing options, you can use the Windows 95 on-line Help in the following ways: ❍ Use the right mouse button to click an item on the screen; then click the Whats Thiss? command. Printing ❍ Click ? and then click an item. ❍ Press F1.
Using the Windows Tabs The MultiPASS printer driver for Windows has several tabs from which you can select your printing options and learn about your printer driver as well as your MultiPASS C3000. ❍ General (Windows 95 only) PTR_DR5.TIF This tab allows you to add comments regarding the printer driver and print a test page or a separator page. (You see this tab when you open the Properties dialog box from the Printers folder, not from within a Windows application.
❍ Paper This tab allows you to specify page orientation, paper size, and type of print media. (The printing options on this tab are the same for both Windows 95 and Windows 3.1.) PTR_DR3.
❍ Setting PTR_DR1.TIF This tab allows you to turn on or off the Setup Analyzer. It also allows you to save up to four custom print settings.

Using the Setup Analyzer PRT_SA_2 The Setup Analyzer allows the printer driver to evaluate your choice of printing settings. On the Setting tab, you click on the green ✔ to enable the Setup Analyzer. Click on the red symbol to disable it. PRT_SA_1 When you exit the printer driver and accept your printing settings by clicking the OK button, the Setup Analyzer (if enabled) checks to see if any of your settings are contrary to the recommended settings.
Printing Speed Versus Color The MultiPASS Printer Driver for Windows can interpret and translate the full spectrum of colors, up to 16.7 million colors. When printing in color, there is a significant increase in the amount of information that the driver has to interpret and translate. When printing black ink only, the driver has only one color to interpret.
For Monochrome Printing Use the optional BC-20 Black BJ Cartridge to optimize the printers performance when you are printing black text and graphics only. In the printer driver, choose the following printing options to tell your MultiPASS C3000 to print using black ink only.
❍ Avoid automatic settings. Although the automatic settings are easy to use, the computer must interpret the printed page. This takes more time than if you select each setting. ❍ Free up your memory. Use only one software program at a time and unload any screen saving utilities or programs stored in Windows background; this frees up more memory for Windows processing. ❍ Limit the number of colors on each page. The computer will need to calculate and transmit fewer dots.

Sending Faxes With the MultiPASS C3000 4 You can use the MultiPASS C3000 to send paper faxes or PC faxes. PC faxing is the ability to send a fax from an application without first printing the document. Using the MultiPASS C3000 and the MultiPASS Desktop Manager, you can PC fax documents from any Windows application that supports printing. Before sending faxes, you may want to set up the numbers you plan to use for automatic dialing methods such as one-touch speed dialing.
Sending a Document The MultiPASS C3000 starts sending a document while it is being scanned into memory. When scanning a multi-page document, the unit calls the other party after the first page is scanned. Once connection is made, the MultiPASS C3000 begins to transmit the information while the remaining pages are being scanned. This is called Memory Sending. Regular Dialing 1 Feed the document. ❍ Place the document face-down in the Automatic Document Feeder (ADF). See page 1-9.

START AGAIN An error has occurred in the phone line or in the system. Make sure the BJ cartridge is installed correctly and the green lock lever is down. Start the procedure again from the beginning.
Problem Cause Solution BJ cartridge moves, ink does not appear The BJ cartridge or a BJ tank may not be installed properly. Make sure the BJ cartridge and its BJ tank(s) are properly installed. Make sure the orange tape is removed from the print head area (see page 9-12). Perform the print head cleaning procedure (see page 9-6) and print the nozzle check (see page 9-5). The nozzles on the BJ cartridge may be clogged. A BJ tank may be empty (BC-21 Color BJ cartridge).
Problem Cause Solution The MultiPASS suspends print after every line is printed The print head may have become too hot. If this happens, the MultiPASS may be slowing its print speed at the end of each line to line to protect the print head. Stop your print operation and wait several minutes to allow the unit to cool Then start your operation again.
Problem Cause Solution Multiple sheets load into unit at the same time Paper may not be stacked correctly. Make sure paper is installed correctly in the sheet feeder. Sheets of paper may be sticking together. Be sure to fan the stack of paper before placing it in the sheet feeder. Too much paper may be stacked in the sheet feeder. Make sure the paper rest is extended and the paper is correctly in the sheet feeder. Make sure the stack of paper does not exceed the limit mark.
Problem Cause Solution Envelopes do not load Envelopes may not be loaded correctly. Make sure the envelopes are loaded properly. (See page 226.) Make sure there are no more than 10 envelopes in the sheet feeder. Print quality is not what you expect; print is not clear, splashed or missing dots, white streaks Output appears jagged 10-14 You may need to choose the envelope setting in your printer driver.
Problem Cause Solution Fonts do not print as smoothly rounded characters Bitmapped fonts designed for dot matrix printers do not print smoothly rounded characters when used with high resolution printers like the MultiPASS C3000. Make sure you installed an outline font manager, such as Adobe® Type Manager or Bitstream® Facelift, or that you are choosing a TrueType® font. Certain MS fonts, such as MS Serif, will print jagged. Choose another font.
Problem Cause Solution Colors print incorrectly The MultiPASS printer driver may not be selected. Make sure the MultiPASS is the default printer in your application. The driver may not be selecting color. Check that you selected Color in the Color Model dialog box in the Graphics tab of the printer driver. Colors are missing The print head may need to be cleaned. Clean the print head (see page 9-6).
Faxing Problems Problem Cause Solution Cannot send a document The MultiPASS may have overheated. Unplug the unit and let it cool for several minutes. Try sending again. The MultiPASS may not be set for the type of telephone line in use (pulse/tone). If you have a pulse line, be sure the MultiPASS is set for pulse dialing. The telephone may not be working. Make sure there is a dial tone when you lift the telephone. The document may not have been fed correctly into the MultiPASS.
Problem Cause Solution Cannot receive a fax automatically The MultiPASS may not be set to receive automatically. To receive faxes automatically, the Receive mode must be FAX Only, Fax/Tel, or Ans.
