Top: .12 inch in BJ mode, .39 in Epson mode (.87 recommended)

Bottom: .12 inch (.87 recommended)

Continuous Feeding

Standard Feeders: Built-in Sheet Feeder [capacity: 30 sheets or 5 envelopes]

1. Make sure the paper support is open.

2. Fan the paper.

3. Slide the stack of paper into the printer until it stops. Align the edge of the paper with the right edge of the sheet feeder. Insert the paper so that the side you want to print on is facing you. If you are using a preprinted stock, such as letterhead, insert the top of the paper into the sheet feeder first.

4. Adjust the paper guide to the stack of paper.

Envelope Feeding

1. Make sure the paper support is open and move the paper guide to the left to match the width of the envelopes.

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

3. Insert the envelopes. Make sure the side you want to print on is facing you and the flap is toward the paper support. Insert the top of the envelope first. Slide the envelope(s) into the sheet feeder until it stops. Align to the right of the sheet feeder.

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

Canon BubbleJet BJC-70 Messages

Display Cause Solution
Blinking C and 5 Low battery notice Press the On Line button to set the printer back on-line. You can print again.

Be sure to plug your AC adapter into the printer as soon as printing is complete. Otherwise the printer detects a low battery notice condition again and eventually the printer may stop operating.

If you leave the printer in low battery notice condition for more than five minutes, the printer turns off automatically.

Blinking C and 6 Automatic cartridge change completion Press the On Line button to set your printer back on-line.

if you neglect to press the Cartridge button when you change a BJ cartridge or an ink tank, the printer returns the cartridge holder to its home position automatically in order to prevent the print head from drying out. The printer notifies you that this has occurred by alternately flashing C and 6 in the display.

Blinking Bk or Color indicator Ink low notice If the Bk indicator blinks, the printer is running low on black ink; if the Color indicator blinks the printer is running low on color ink. Make sure a new ink tank is available. If you continue printing, the printer will run out of ink and you will have printing problems, such as white streaks. Cleaning the print head will not help. Replace the ink tank with a new one.
