Continuous Feeding

Standard Feeders: One Paper Tray [capacity: 100 sheets or 15 envelopes

Envelope Feeding

1. Make sure the printer is turned on and on-line.

2. If you are using the Canon BJC-600E Windows driver, skip this step. Otherwise, turn on the envelope mode. Press the on-line button to set the printer off line. Press the Paper Select button until both the envelope light and the thick light are one. Press on-line to set the printer back on-line

3. Make sure the green paper thickness lever on the inside of the printer is set to the up position.

4. Set the paper selection lever to the forward position and move the paper guide to the left to match the width of the envelopes.

5. Arrange the stack of envelopes on a firm surface and press down firmly on the edges to make the folds crisp. Press all the way around the envelopes to remove any curls and expel air from inside the envelopes.

6. Align the stack of envelopes with the right edge of the sheet feeder, and slide in the stack until it stops.

7. Adjust the paper guide to the stack of envelopes.

8. Print from your application.

After printing on envelopes, follow these steps before printing on normal paper again:

1. Set the paper selection lever (on the right side of the sheet feeder) to the back position.

2. Set the green paper thickness lever (inside the printer) to the down position.

3. If you enabled the envelope mode, disable it now. Make sure the printer is off-line; then press the Paper Select button until the envelope light goes out. Press the on line button to set the printer back on line.

Canon BubbleJet BJC-600E Settings

The printer functions defined by the DIP switches are determined by the printer control mode. DIP switch 11 selects the printer control mode. When DIP switch 11 is OFF, the printer is in BJC-10 mode; when DIP switch 11 is on, the printer is in Epson LQ mode.

In Canon Extended mode, used by the Canon BJC-600e Windows printer driver, the printer overrides the DIP switch settings. Thus, if you are using this driver in Windows, you can ignore the DIP switch settings.

DIP switch 12 is not used in either mode.
