How to Print Legal-Size Paper on a Canon Copier
Canon Inc. manufactures copiers for personal and commercial use. These copiers can run legal-size paper, which is 8 1/2-inch by 14-inch paper. If the copier has more than one paper drawer, one drawer can be loaded with legal paper and the other loaded with letter paper. If there is only one drawer, however, the letter paper is removed and legal paper added in order to run your copy job. After adding the paper to the drawer, you input the new paper size on the control panel so the copier knows it has a different size paper than normal.

Open the paper drawer to which you wish to add the legal size paper. Remove any paper that is already in the drawer, then set this extra paper aside.

Locate the paper side guides in the drawer. Move the guides to the 8 1/2 x 14 inch (or "LGL") marks either by squeezing the lock clips then moving the guides or by tilting the guide, removing it, then reinstalling it in the proper position for the legal-size paper.
