6 Canon BJC-8500 User’s Manual
Welcome!
The BJC-8500 produces excellent print quality at high speed. Here is a sum-
mary of your new printer’s exciting features.
■ Improved printing technology
Improved printing has been made possible with P-POP
TM
(Plain Paper
Optimised Printing) which produces sharp, water-fast text and graphics
printing in both colour and black, made possible with a special liquid
called Ink Optimizer, a new additive to regular black and colour inks.
These inks are not easily affected by light and are extremely water-resis-
tant. Although a variety of special media are available for special print
jobs, you can also use plain paper to produce high-quality printing at low
cost.
■ Large paper supply
In addition to its sheet feeder on top of the printer, the printer is equipped
with a paper cassette on the bottom of the printer. One additional paper
cassette is available as an option. Both cassettes are universal paper cas-
settes which can be adjusted to hold a variety of standard paper sizes. A
manual feed slot is also provided on the back of the printer for hand feed-
ing single sheets of thick paper or special media.
The total plain paper supply capacity of the printer is 350 sheets, 100
sheets in the sheet feeder and 250 sheets in the universal paper cassette. If
the optional universal paper cassette is installed, it can supply an addi-
tional 250 sheets for a total of 600 sheets.
■ Large ink supply
The large ink tanks can deliver more printed pages. The black ink tank
can print up to approximately 1,000 pages (1500 characters) of normal A4
text before replacement, and the colour ink tank (four colours) can print
approximately 500 sheets of A4 pages with about 7.5% coverage.
