Canon ImageCLASS MF264dw—First Time Setup As we mentioned earlier, the Canon imageCLASS MF264dw setup includes two stages. You can perform both stages of the setup easily and quickly by following the simple step-by-step steps below. Hardware Setup—Three Quick Steps The Canon imageCLASS MF264dw hardware setup is that simple. First, unbox and turn on the printer. ● Next, configure the initial printer settings. ● Once you have done it, load the recommended media type into the tray. By this point, the printer’s hardware setup will be complete. ● Unboxing The Printer Before setting up the printer for the first time, ensure that it is unpacked. This way, you can avoid installation-related issues in the future. ● Open the box and gently take the printer and its components out of the box. ● Inside the box, you will find a setup CD-ROM, a user guide, a power cord, a warranty sheet, and the printer. The toner cartridge is pre-installed on the printer. ● Now, you have to remove all the packing materials from the printer except the sticker that covers the USB port. ● Have you unpacked the printer without leaving a single piece of packing material? Perfect! There are two more steps to complete the hardware setup of this printer. ● Continue forward. Configuring The Initial Printer Settings Switch on your Canon printer. ● Connect the printer directly to an outlet (ensure that it is working fine) using the power cord that is shipped with the printer. ● Next, press the power button. The button is near the front cover of the printer and not on the control panel. ●

2. Can you see the screen shown in the image below on your printer’s display now? If yes, that means the printer is booting up. This might take a few seconds or a ● minute to complete. Once the boot-up is done, the screens that ask you to configure the printer language, your region or country, time zone, etc., will open one by one. ● To continue using the printer, configure the initial settings correctly. ● Loading Paper The Canon imageCLASS MF264dw printer comes with a drawer and a multi-purpose tray. ● You can use either of these two to load paper. However, before loading papers, understand the benefits of the drawer and the multi-purpose tray. This will help you ● choose the right one to load papers for your printing and other printer-related needs. Loading paper in the multi-purpose tray is best if you want to print only one page at a time. ● You can load almost all paper sizes and types in the multi-purpose tray. ● Want to perform the print operation continuously? Then, load the paper into the drawer. The drawer also supports almost all paper sizes, like the multi-purpose tray. ● Open the front cover of your printer. Slide the paper guides outward using your hands. Are you doing well? Cool! You are almost there. ● Now, fan the paper stack and load it with its print side facing up into the drawer. ● Ensure that the paper is manageable. This way, you can avoid paper jams and feed-related issues. ● Remember to close the front cover after loading the paper. ● Open the front cover if you want to load paper in the multi-purpose tray. ● Gently lower the tray and slide the guides to the edges. ● Load the paper, align the guides, and close the front cover. ● Loaded paper? Yes? Now, you have to do a more important thing: specify the paper size and type on your printer. ● Usually, the Paper Settings screen will automatically open after loading paper into the drawer or tray. ● On the opened screen, select the MP tray if you have loaded paper in it. Similarly, if you loaded paper into the drawer, select Drawer. ● The printer will detect and display the loaded paper size and type on the screen. Select and confirm your paper size and type. That’s it! ● Suppose the printer fails to detect your paper size and type correctly; choose Other Sizes. ● This step completes the Canon imageCLASS MF264dw printer’s hardware setup.
