Canon mp620 - Manual (Page 683)

We recommend printing curl-corrected paper one sheet at a time.
Note
Depending on the media type, the paper may be smudged or may not be fed properly even if it
is not curled. In such cases, follow the procedure described above to curl the paper before
printing. This may improve the print result.
Check 4: If you are printing on thick paper, select the Prevent paper
abrasion setting.
Selecting the Prevent paper abrasion setting will widen the clearance between the Print Head and
the loaded paper. If you notice abrasion even with the media type set correctly to match the loaded
paper, set the machine to prevent paper abrasion by using the Operation Panel or the printer driver.
Print speed is reduced if you are selecting the Prevent paper abrasion setting.
* Deactivate the Prevent paper abrasion setting once printing is complete. If not, this setting remains
enabled for all subsequent print jobs.
To set by using the Operation Panel
From the HOME screen, select Settings, Device settings, and Print settings in this order, and
then set Prevent paper abrasion to ON.
Changing the Machine Settings on the LCD

Check 5: If the intensity is set high, reduce the Intensity setting in the
printer driver and try printing again.
If you are using plain paper to print images with high intensity, the paper may absorb too much ink
and become wavy, causing paper abrasion.
When printing from your computer
Reduce the Intensity setting in the printer driver and try printing again.
1. Open the printer properties dialog box.
Opening the Printer Properties Dialog Box (Windows)
Click Here: Printer Driver
* Before clicking here to open the printer properties dialog box, quit the running application
software.
2. On the Main sheet, select Manual for Color/Intensity, and then click Set.
3. Drag the Intensity slide bar on the Color Adjustment sheet to adjust the
intensity.
