Selecting Special Settings

Special settings are provided that allow you to select the amount of ink used in steps. You can fix lackluster colors or
bleeding ink by selecting special settings where the amount of ink used is suitable for the paper you are using. The
special settings are organized as follows so that they can be used as follows depending on the type of black ink and
the media type.

Type of special settings

Type of black ink

Example of applicable paper

"Special 1" to "Special 5"

BK (photo black)

Glossy Paper

"Special 6" to "Special 10" MBK (matte black) (*1) Coated Paper, Matte Paper

  *1: There may be cases of using not only with MBK, but with a mixture of BK ink.

"Special 1" and "Special 6" use the least amount of ink, with the amount of ink used increasing through 5 steps as the
number increases up to "Special 5" and "Special 10" which use the greatest amount of ink. Although colors become
more vivid as the amount of ink used increases, bleeding also occurs more easily. We recommend that you try in order
starting from "Special 1" or "Special 6" while checking the state of the printing.

Note

If you cannot obtain sufficiently good image quality by selecting the general-purpose settings or special settings, you
can create settings as suitable for the paper you are using by using the "Add Custom Paper" function in the Media
Configuration Tool. For details, 

The Add Custom Paper function in the Media Configuration Tool is provided as a method for improving print quality
and feed properties over printing paper other than genuine Canon paper and feed confirmed paper using the general-
purpose settings. This can be expected to improve properties such as print quality because it allows you to configure
settings such as the maximum amount of ink to use and the height of the printhead depending on the characteristics of
the paper you are using. Furthermore, printing can be performed by adding the settings created using this function to
the printer control panel and printer driver as a new media type.
For details on Media Configuration Tool, refer as follows.

Important

For details on how to select the media type in the printer driver, refer to the following topics.

We recommend that you use an ICC profile created using commercially available profile creation software in
order to perform color management accurately on paper other than genuine Canon paper and feed confirmed
paper. The created ICC profile can be registered to the printer driver and printed. For details,
