If necessary, complete the following settings:
You can set the length of the machine rest time until printing of the next page begins.
Moving the slider to the right increases the pause time, and moving the slider to the left decreases the time.
If the paper gets stained because the next page is ejected before the ink on the printed page dries, increase the ink drying wait time.
Reducing the ink drying wait time speeds up printing.

To display the guide messages again, display the Canon IJ Printer Utility pop-up menu, select Custom Settings, and then check the Hagaki Printing check box.

Detects whether a printable disc is loaded on the disc tray during disc label printing and displays a message if a disc is not loaded.
Check this check box to print with detecting whether a printable disc is loaded.
Uncheck this check box to print without detecting whether a printable disc is loaded.
Important
If you leave this check box unchecked, the printer may print to the disc tray even if a printable disc is not loaded on the disc tray. Therefore, you should check this check box under normal circumstances.
If you load a printable disc that has already been printed onto the disc tray, the printer may detect that no printable disc is loaded on the disc tray. In this case, uncheck this check box.
The machine can increase the gap between the print head and the paper during high-density printing to prevent paper abrasion.
Check this check box to prevent paper abrasion.

Check this check box to perform the manual head alignment.
Uncheck this check box to perform the automatic head alignment.
