What is a Safety Data Sheet?

Got a question about safety? Check out some common questions
  • Can I use edible inks and icing sheets with my Canon printer?

    Canon does not recommend the use of edible ink or icing sheets for use in any of its range of inkjet printers.
    The printers are not designed to print with edible inks or to be used with edible icing paper. Canon has not approved or tested edible inks or icing sheets. Standard inks (either Canon manufactured inks or other third party inks) are not safe to digest and immediate medical advice should be sought if this were to happen. 
    If the use of edible inks and/or edible icing paper were contemplated, then extreme caution should be taken to avoid cross contamination with any standard inks. If standard ink has ever been used in a printer, internal components of that printer will contain standard ink. As such anything edible passing through the printer should not come into contact with such components. Canon accepts no liability or responsibility for health concerns caused by the use of edible ink.

    In addition to the potential health and safety aspects, the use of edible inks or icing sheets in your printer could result in reduced print quality, clogging of the printer's system or even damage to the printer's components.
    Canon is dedicated to creating quality ink for providing the best results for Canon printers. Edible ink may be incompatible with this printer. Canon accepts no liability or responsibility for malfunction or damage caused by the use of edible ink.
    We recommend the use of genuine Canon ink to guarantee the highest quality and ensure the maximum performance of your printer.
