Changing the Printer Operation Mode

If necessary, switch between various modes of printer operation.

Custom Settings

  1. Open the Canon IJ Printer Assistant Tool

  2. Make sure that the printer is on, and then click Custom Settings

    The Custom Settings dialog box opens.

    Note

    • If the printer is off or if communication between the printer and the computer is disabled, an error message may appear because the computer cannot collect the printer status.
      If this happens, click OK to display the most recent settings specified on your computer.
  3. If necessary, complete the following settings:

    Rotate 90 degrees left when orientation is [Landscape]
    On the Page Setup tab, you can change the rotation direction of the Landscape in the Orientation.
    To rotate the print data 90 degrees to the left during printing, select this item. To rotate the print data 90 degrees to the right during printing, clear this item.

    Important

    • Do not change this setting while the print job is displayed in the print wait list. Otherwise, characters may be omitted or the layout may become corrupt.
    Don't detect mismatch of paper settings when printing from computer
    When printing documents from your computer, the paper loaded in the printer and the paper size setting on the printer driver do not match, this setting disables the message display and allows you to continue printing.
    To disable detection of paper setting mismatches, select this check box.
    Ink Drying Wait Time
    You can set the length of the printer 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.
  4. Apply the settings

    Click OK and when the confirmation message appears, click OK.

    The printer operates with the modified settings hereafter.
