*¹	PPM print speed on plain paper is measured using Canon Standard Pattern. Photo print speed is based on the default setting using ISO / JIS-SCID N2 on 4 x 6" Photo Paper Plus Glossy II. Print speed may vary depending on system configuration, interface, software, document complexity, print mode, page coverage, type of paper used etc. and does not take into account data processing time on host computer.
*²	Ink droplets can be placed with a pitch of 1/9600 inch at minimum.
*³	Colour document scan speed is measured with ISO / IEC 24712 Newsletter. Film scan speed is measured with Canon Standard Chart. Scan speed indicates the time measured between pressing the scan button of the scanner driver and the on-screen status display turns off. Scan speed may vary depending on system configuration, interface, software, scan mode settings and document size etc.
*⁴	CPM copy speed is measured based on "Fast" mode using Canon Standard Pattern on plain paper. Canon original copy speed is based on default setting using ISO / IEC 24712 Newsletter (printed by off-set method) on plain paper. Copy speed may vary depending on document complexity, copy mode, page coverage, type of paper used etc. and does not take into account warming up time.
