Selecting and Installing a BJ Cartridge Canon offers a number of Bubble Jet (BJ) cartridges to meet a wide range of printing requirements. This section describes how to select the best BJ cartridge for your needs, as well as how to install and maintain the cartridge. The MultiPASS C50 comes with one BC-20 Black BJ cartridge and one BC-21 or BC-21e Colour BJ cartridge.
Hold the BJ cartridge by its sides only. Do not touch the print head, the sharp edges around the print head, the silver plate on the bottom of the cartridge, or the silver metal or circuit area on its side. PRINT HEAD J Make sure the BJ cartridge holder is in its home position (on the right side of the unit) when you are not using the MultiPASS C50. If it is not in its home position, press the CARTRIDGE button. Leaving it out of its home position will dry out the print head on the cartridge.
Choosing the Best Cartridge Canon offers several BJ print cartridges and ink tanks for use in the MultiPASS C50. (BJ print cartridges contain the BJ print head and ink, while BJ ink tanks contain only ink.) Use the following descriptions to decide which type of cartridge best suits your particular needs. To avoid printing problems, use only the BC-20 or BC-21/21e BJ cartridges for normal printing. The BC-22/22e Photo Colour BJ Cartridge (sold separately) is for printing photo-realistic colour images.
BC-22/22e Photo Colour BJ Cartridge Includes the print head and colour ink in a single unit. Use this cartridge for printing photo-realistic colour images. BC-29F Fluorescent BJ Cartridge Includes the print head and colour ink in a single unit. Use this cartridge for printing bright, attractive fluorescent colours. For optimum print quality, use High Resolution Paper HR-101. BC -29 F The MultiPASS C50 cannot print incoming faxes or make copies while the BC-22/22e or BC-29F cartridge is installed.

If you remove a partially used BJ cartridge from the MultiPASS C50, store it in the SB-21 BJ cartridge container that came with your unit. 1.
Selecting and Loading the Print Media The MultiPASS C50 can provide sharp black or vibrant colour printing on a wide variety of media, including A4, letter, and legal plain paper, glossy paper, envelopes, transparencies, back print film (for display on a backlit device), and fabric sheets. Whenever you change the size of the paper in the MultiPASS C50, you must also use the MultiPASS Desktop Manager to set the MultiPASS C50 to use the new size.
Canon Media Canon provides the following media, all specifically developed to extend the printing capability of your MultiPASS C50. For details or purchase, contact your local authorised Canon dealer. Canon Bubble Jet Paper LC-301 (water resistant) This water-resistant paper is specially developed for colour printing with Canon Colour BJ printers such as the MultiPASS C50. Images printed on LC-301 paper are bright and vivid, and will not run if liquid is spilled on them.
Canon High-Gloss Film HG-101 This is a high-grade gloss film that lets you create sharper and more vivid colour output than is possible with coated paper. This film provides the best colour print quality for the BC-21/21e Colour BJ cartridge. Use this film for trade show displays or other special presentations, and when printing at 720 × 360 dpi resolution.
The Printable Area To ensure the best print quality, make sure the text or graphics you create stay within the printable areas shown below.

If you want to change the receive mode, press RECEIVE MODE repeatedly until the mode you want appears. ANS.
Receiving Faxes and Phone Calls Automatically: Fax/Tel Mode See page 5-3 to select Fax/Tel Mode. In Fax/Tel Mode, the MultiPASS C50 monitors all incoming calls to see whether the call is from another fax machine or from a telephone: Type of call Telephone charges begin for caller. Telephone Fax Fax Sending document manually Sending documents automatically MultiPASS C50 answers without ringing MultiPASS C50 listens for FAX TONE (For 8 sec.
J If the call is from a fax machine, the MultiPASS C50 receives the fax automatically. J If the call is a telephone call, the MultiPASS C50 rings to alert you to pick up the handset. If you do not pick up the handset within 22 seconds, the MultiPASS C50 stops ringing, checks again to make sure the call is not from a fax machine, then hangs up. (You can use the MultiPASS Desktop Manager to change the 22 seconds, increasing the amount of time the MultiPASS C50 rings before it hangs up.
Receiving Faxes Manually: MANUAL MODE See page 5-3 to select Manual Mode. To use this feature, the optional handset or a telephone must be plugged into the telephone jack of the MultiPASS C50. See ”Connecting the Optional Handset, a Telephone or Answering Machine” on page 2-17. You must also use the MultiPASS Desktop Manager to enable the REMOTE RX setting and select the two-digit ID code (the default code is 25). For details, see the MultiPASS Desktop Manager User’s Guide.
If you have an answering machine connected to your MultiPASS C50 that can carry out remote-control operations (controlling your answering machine from a remote telephone), the security code for this function may be the same as the two-digit ID code described above. If so, make sure you change the MultiPASS C50’s two-digit ID code to make it distinct from the answering machine’s security code. See the MultiPASS Desktop Manager User’s Guide for instructions on changing the two digit ID code.
Receiving Faxes Automatically: FAX ONLY MODE When the MultiPASS C50 is set up for a dedicated line, set FAX ONLY MODE to automatically receive documents whenever a call comes over the fax line. 1. Make sure the MultiPASS C50 is set up to receive over a dedicated fax line. RECEIVE MODE 2. Press RECEIVE MODE to select FAX ONLY MODE. FAX ONLY MODE J The MultiPASS C50 assumes all incoming calls are from fax machines sending documents. It receives the documents automatically and disconnects all voice calls.
Using an Answering Machine: ANS. MACHINE MODE Connecting an answering machine to the MultiPASS C50 allows you to receive faxes and phone messages while you are out of the office. In ANS. MACHINE MODE, the MultiPASS C50 allows the answering machine to answer incoming calls, then listens for a fax tone or for four seconds of silence (also an indication that a fax is coming in), and automatically receives the fax if it detects the fax tone or a four-second silence.
Documents Received in Memory The MultiPASS C50 will automatically receive incoming faxes into its memory if it encounters a problem that prevents it from printing normally. The LCD will display REC’D IN MEMORY and a message showing the problem. See below for correcting the problem. J The MultiPASS C50 memory can store up to approximately 42 A4-size pages. J Once the problem is solved, press the (STOP) button. The MultiPASS C50 will then print the stored faxes, and delete them from memory.
LOAD PAPER Cause: The MultiPASS C50 ran out of paper. Action: Add paper to the sheet feeder and press the (STOP) button. See ”Loading Print Media for Automatic Feed” on page 2-45. CLEAR PAPER JAM Cause: A paper jam occurred. Action: Clear the jam, then press the page 8-6. (STOP) button.

3. Adjust the document guides to the width of the document. A4 LTR 4. Gently insert the document face-down (top of the document towards you) into the Automatic Document Feeder (ADF) until you hear a beep.
The document is now ready for scanning. The MultiPASS C50 automatically feeds the pages one by one from the bottom of the stack.
Trouble With Multipage Documents If you have trouble feeding a multipage document, do the following: 1. Remove the stack and tap it on a flat surface to even the edges. 2. ”Slant” the stack so that its front edge is bevelled as shown below, then insert the stack into the Automatic Document Feeder (ADF). J If you have further trouble with page jams while feeding, see ”Jams in the Automatic Document Feeder (ADF)” on page 8-6.
Loading Documents for Manual Feed 1. Make sure the document feed lever is set to manual document feed. When using manual feed, use a carrier sheet to avoid scratching the surface of important documents (photographs, for example). 2. Adjust the document guides to the width of the document.
3. Gently insert the document face-down (top of the document towards you) into the Automatic Document Feeder (ADF) until you hear a beep. The document is now ready for scanning.
Adding Pages to the Document in the Automatic Document Feeder (ADF) When the MultiPASS C50 is set for automatic document feed, the Automatic Document Feeder (ADF) can hold up to 20 A4-size, 20 letter-size, or 10 legal-size pages at a time (75-90 g/m2 paper, between 0.08 and 0.13 mm thick). If your document has more pages than this, you can add pages while the MultiPASS C50 is scanning, as follows: 1. Wait until the last sheet in the Automatic Document Feeder (ADF) starts feeding. 2.
Making Copies One of the MultiPASS C50’s convenient features is its ability to make up to 99 high-quality copies of a document. To make copies, do the following: Be sure to adjust the document feed lever before loading your document. See page 6-5 for details. 1. Prepare the document and load, face down, into the Automatic Document Feeder (ADF).
J When copying in black and white: I You cannot make copies in STANDARD resolution, but must use FINE or PHOTO resolution instead. (STANDARD does not appear as one of the available resolutions.) I FINE resolution works well for copying most text documents. I Use PHOTO resolution when copying documents that contain photographs. This scans areas of the document that contain photos with 256 levels of grey, and results in a much better reproduction of the photograph.
6. Press START/COPY to begin copying: COPY J To stop copying, press (STOP). You may then need to lift the operation panel to remove the document. See ”Jams in the Automatic Document Feeder (ADF)” on page 8-6.

Some Advice for Colour Printing Your Canon MultiPASS C50 is a powerful colour printer. If this is the first time you have used a colour printer, read this section for some tips on printing with colour effectively. Colour lets you strengthen the visual impact of reports, memos, and presentations. Colour captures your readers’ attention, holds their interest, and increases their understanding of your message.
Your application may also offer a number of colour-control functions, such as dithering, intensity, or hue: J Dithering creates colours with patterns of alternating dots. For example, an alternating red and white dither pattern can create pink. J Intensity (saturation) lets you adjust the depth of a colour if the printout appears lighter or darker than the image on the monitor. J Hue allows you to change a colour’s hue. For example, you can adjust the hue of red to make it more purple.
Improving Print Speed The MultiPASS C50 can produce a full spectrum of up to 16.7 million colours. When printing with black ink only, the driver only has to process information for one colour. When printing in colour, however, the MultiPASS C50 has to process significantly more information and prints more slowly. To improve colour printing speed, try the following: J Increase the amount of RAM in your computer. J Use a computer with a faster processor.
Controlling Printing Costs Printing in colour costs more than printing in black. To keep your colour printing costs down, follow these guidelines: J Use Draft mode with the BC-21/21e Colour BJ cartridge or the BC-22/22e Photo Colour BJ cartridge to print drafts. Or use the BC-20 Black BJ cartridge. J For graphs and charts, set the fill option to coloured hatch patterns instead of solid colours. Hatch patterns require less ink. J Use lighter colours that incorporate more white space.

Glossary A AC Alternating current. The type of electrical current available from a wall outlet. Activity report A journal of the MultiPASS C50’s fax transactions, both sent and received. Address Book The MultiPASS Desktop Manager for Windows provides you with an electronic Address Book that allows you to create a list of people with their phone/fax numbers. In the Address Book you can add new entries, create a fax group, edit existing entries, and sort the entries based on last, first or company name.
Automatic Document Feeder (ADF) The device included in the MultiPASS C50 that automatically feeds the document being faxed, copied, or scanned into the MultiPASS C50. Automatic image reduction The MultiPASS C50 can print the date, time, company name, and a fax number at the top of the faxes it receives. To prevent this information from crowding the faxed image on the page and possibly lengthening the fax, the MultiPASS C50 automatically reduces the size of the image on the page.
Bubble Jet (BJ) printing An ink-jet type printer that heats the ink to a boiling point in a nozzle to form a bubble. When the bubble expands, there is no room left in the nozzle for the ink and the ink is projected onto paper. C Centronics An interface standard for parallel data transmission. The interface on the MultiPASS C50 is a Centronics-type parallel interface.
Composite black The black colour formed by mixing cyan, magenta, and yellow ink so that they appear almost black on a printout. Control code Special data that invokes nonprinting functions of the printer, such as line feed or carriage return. In the ASCII chart, control codes are represented by decimal numbers 0-31, 127, 128, 159, and 255. cpi Characters per inch. A unit of measurement relevant to a fixed-space font.
Dithering A method by which colour dots are combined on a page to produce a wide spectrum of colours. Document The sheet of paper containing the data that you send to, or receive from a unit. dpi Dots per inch. A unit of measurement for indicating a printer’s resolution. Your MultiPASS C50 can produce a resolution up to 720 dpi precision (horizontal) depending on the printer control mode and the application you are using.
FAX/TEL switching This option allows you to set the MultiPASS C50 to automatically detect whether a call is from a fax or telephone. If the call is from another fax, the transmission is automatically received. If the call is from a telephone, the MultiPASS C50 rings to let you know, so you can pick up the handset. With this feature, one telephone line can be shared by both the telephone and the fax. FINE The resolution setting for documents with very small characters and lines.
H Halftone Using this method, the MultiPASS C50 produces shades of grey or of colours by mapping dots to be printed. For colour printing, different coloured dots of ink are placed closely together to create illusions of other colours. Hue A colour in the colour spectrum. Examples are red, green, and violet. I IEEE 1284 IEEE 1284 is the new specification standard for PC-to-peripheral bi-directional parallel interface communications.
Interface cable The cable used to create the interface between a printer and a computer. Interface port The MultiPASS C50 comes with one Centronics, 8-bit, bi-directional parallel interface port, located on the back of the unit. You attach the cable that connects your computer and MultiPASS C50 to this port. J Jack The telephone receptacles on your wall or in your MultiPASS C50 used to connect the MultiPASS C50 to the telephone line, answering machine, or extension phone.
Memory broadcast Allows you to send a scanned fax to as many as 57 locations at once, using a combination of one-touch speed dialling, coded speed dialling, or manual dialling. Memory sending Scans a document into memory before the MultiPASS C50 dials the numbers and sends it. This method allows you to retrieve your original document immediately after scanning. Modem A device that converts (MOdulates) digital data for transmission over telephone lines.
O Off-line The printer’s communication status in which you cannot transfer data from your computer to the printer. On-line The printer’s communication status in which it is being controlled by your computer and is ready to receive data. One-touch speed dialling An automatic dialling method that allows you to dial a fax or telephone number by pressing a single one-touch speed dialling button. The MultiPASS C50 can store up to 6 numbers for one-touch speed dialling.
Photo The document setting you use for sending or copying documents with intermediate tones, such as photographs. Platen The printer component that holds the paper in position during ink transfer. Point size Character height is defined in points; one point is 1/72 inch. For instance, this text is printed using a 10-point font. Portrait orientation Refers to printing across the width of the page (letter style). This is the opposite of landscape orientation, which is printing across the length of the page.
Q Quick-on-line sending Quick-on-line sending is the easiest and quickest way to send a document. After a document is set in the Automatic Document Feeder (ADF), the MultiPASS C50 begins to scan the entire document into the memory. As the first page of a multiple page document is being scanned, your MultiPASS C50 will begin to call the other party, and transmit the information even as the remaining pages are being scanned.
Redialling-automatic When the fax you dial does not answer or a sending error occurs, the MultiPASS C50 waits for a specified interval and then redials the same fax number. You can adjust the number of redials and the length of time between redialling. Redialling-manual When you use the regular dialling method, you can quickly call the last number (REDIAL)/PAUSE button.
Resolution The density of dots for any given output device. Expressed in terms of dots per inch (dpi). Low resolution causes font characters and graphics to have a jagged appearance. Higher resolution means smoother curves and angles as well as a better match to traditional typeface designs. Resolution values are represented by horizontal data and vertical data, for example, 360 × 360 dpi. This printer can produce output with resolutions up to 720 × 360 dpi precision.
Sender ID Information printed at the top of a fax (also called TTI or Transmit Terminal ID): J Date and time the fax was sent J Sender’s fax/phone number J Sender’s name J Your name or company name J Page number Sending A fax document that has been scanned by a facsimile machine and sent over telephone lines, in the form of electrical pulses, to another facsimile machine. Also called TX or Transmit. The MultiPASS C50 also allows you to send a document directly from your PC (PC Faxing).
T Timed sending See Delayed sending. TONE A button that allows you to temporarily switch to touch-tone from pulse dialling. In some countries, on-line data services may require that you use tone dialling. Tone/pulse setting The ability to set the MultiPASS C50 to match the telephone dialling system your telephone line uses: touch-tone or rotary pulse. Transaction number A unique number assigned to each fax document sent (TX NO.) or received (RX NO.
TX See Sending. Typeface The printed design of characters. For instance, Courier, Script, and Roman typefaces all print characters of different designs. Typestyle Refers to how the typeface appears: slanted (italic) or upright. U UHQTM (Ultra High Quality) An exclusive Canon digital image processing system that incorporates 64 shades of grey along with a special edge enhancement feature which ensures that text and photos are transmitted with ultimate clarity.
