Canon Pixma printers provide a range of services to their users, depending on the model that is being used. However, they do share many similarities, including the type of media that they are configured to print. In most cases this will include common sizes of paper, such as letter or legal, but it also includes some unusual options, such as "T-Shirt Transfers." The "T-Shirt Transfer" setting will allow for mirror printing, which prints an image backward so it can be applied to other media, such as a T-shirt. Fortunately, this setting can also be applied to files other than images being transferred to T-shirts, and will allow you to mirror print anything.
Step 1
Turn on your Pixma printer and your computer, then verify that the two devices are connected with a USB or printer cable.
