Using a USB Memory Device to Export/Import Registered Data
Data such as Address Book entries and machine settings can be exported and saved to a USB memory device. You can also import the
data saved to a USB memory device. Because data exported from the machine can be imported into other models, this provides a simple
way to copy information such as Address Book entries onto multiple machines.
Importing of Address Book data exported from this machine may not be supported on some models. Note also that you can only import and export data other
than Address Book entries, such as machine settings, between the same model.
Exporting Registered Data to a USB Memory Device
Importing Registered Data from a USB Memory Device
Do not turn OFF the machine until the export/import process is complete
It may take a few minutes to complete the process. If the machine is turned OFF during the process, it may result in damage
to data or the machine.
Do not operate the machine during the export/import process
Before exporting/importing, check that no operations such as printing documents are currently in progress.
In situations where you want to selectively import or export settings data (e.g. only export Address Book entries), run the
procedure from the Remote UI.
Where settings cannot be imported or exported, the same will apply if you run the procedure from the Remote UI.
Saving/Loading Registered Data
Available USB Memory Devices
You can use USB memory devices with the following format styles.
FAT16 (memory capacity: up to 2 GB)
FAT32 (memory capacity: up to 32 GB)
Do not use non-standard USB memory devices. You may not be able to export/import data properly with some USB
memory devices.
Do not connect anything other than a USB memory device. USB memory devices cannot be connected via a USB hub or an
extension cable.
Do not use USB memory devices with special functions such as built-in security functions.

Consumables
The following is a guide to the estimated replacement time for the consumables used in this machine. Purchase consumables at your
local authorized Canon dealer. Observe safety and health precautions when storing and handling consumables (
Consumables).
Depending on the installation environment, printing paper size, or document type, you may need to replace consumables
before the end of the estimated lifetime.
Replacement toner cartridges are different from the supplied toner cartridges, so the yield may also differ.
Specifying an auto shutdown time shorter than the default setting (4 hours) may shorten the life of the toner cartridges.
Toner Cartridges
Supplied Toner Cartridges
The average yields of the toner cartridges that come with the machine are shown in the table below.
The average yield is based on "ISO/IEC 19798" (the global standard related to "Method for the determination of toner cartridge yield for monochromatic
electrophotographic printers and multi-function devices that contain printer components" issued by ISO [International Organization for Standardization])
when printing A4 size paper with the default print density setting.
