3. Precautions During Installation --------------------------------------------
- For more about installation the procedure, please refer to the manual.
- You must log into Windows as an Administrator before the installation.
- Before performing the installation, close all the other application software.
You cannot install with imagePROGRAF Status Monitor running.
4. Cautions, Limitations and Restrictions -------------------------------------
Note the following limitations when using this software.
- Some print data may cause shift in hatching patterns or left/right reversal
of the image.
- When you are using the Modify Standard Paper Sizes function to create a
custom size with the one of the Wizard formats, the value displayed for the
print area may be smaller that the size of the actual printing area.
You may be able to enter a value smaller than the actual printing area. If
you enter values smaller than the actual printing area, the values will be
corrected internally and set to the minimum values allowed.
- If you select Perceptual under Color Matching to print bitmap data pasted
into an image, the gradation levels in some areas may not appear natural.
If this occurs, selecting Colorimetric under Color Matching may solve the
problem.
- Printing may result in an error if the output destination is changed to
another port once it has already been set to output to a file and printing
has been started.
If an error results, open the HDI driver properties with the output
destination still changed, make any necessary changes, then save the changes
to update the printer environment settings file.
- If you encounter trouble while printing, try printing with Canon
imagePROGRAF Printer Driver.
