Canon Pixma Pro9000 Mark Ii Will Not Feed 5x7
Paper Source to Load Paper
The printer has two paper sources to feed paper, Rear Tray and Front Tray.
Select either one of the paper sources, depending on the size or type of paper to load.
- When loading two or more sheets of paper, align the edges of the sheets before loading.
- When loading two or more sheets of paper, make sure that the paper stack does not exceed the paper load limit.
However, proper feeding of paper may not be possible at this maximum capacity depending on the type of paper or environmental conditions (either very high or low temperature and humidity). In such cases, reduce the sheets of paper you load at a time to less than half of the paper load limit.
- Always load the paper in portrait orientation, either in the Rear Tray or the Front Tray, regardless of the printing orientation.
- When you load the paper on the Rear Tray, load the paper with the print side facing UP. Align the paper stack against the right side of the Rear Tray and slide the Paper Guide so that it just touches the left edge of the stack.
- When you load the paper on the Front Tray, load one sheet at a time with the print side facing UP. Insert the paper straight into the Front Tray so that the front edge of the paper aligns with the mark on the Front Tray, then align the right edge of the paper against the right side of the Front Tray.
Paper Source to Load Paper
The printer has two paper sources to feed paper, Rear Tray and Front Tray.

Loading Two or More Sheets of Paper in the Rear Tray
You can load various sizes of paper, from 4" x 6" / 10 x 15 cm to A3+ (13" x 19") paper, in the Rear Tray.
Two or more sheets of the same size and type of paper can be loaded at a time so that you can print continuously. (Some sizes or types of paper can be loaded only one sheet at a time.)
Select Rear Tray in Paper Source in the printer driver setting when printing from the Rear Tray.
Loading One Sheet of Large Size Paper or Thick Paper in the Front Tray
You can load large size paper such as 14" x 17" / 36 x 43 cm paper, or thick paper such as art paper and board paper, in the Front Tray.
Select Front Tray in Paper Source in the printer driver setting when printing from the Front Tray.
Notes on Loading Paper
important:
- If you cut plain paper into small size such as 4" x 6" / 10 x 15 cm, 4" x 8" / 101.6 x 203.2 mm, or 5" x 7" / 13 x 18 cm to perform trial print, it can cause paper jams.
