Can the Canon Color imageCLASS MF753Cdw print on transparency film?

Hi there!
I recently got my Canon Color imageCLASS MF753Cdw laser printer. I was wondering if this printer is able to print on transparency film? If it can I have not found a transparency setting for it. I was wondering what paper type I would need to print the transparencies under if this printer can print them? Thank you!

The media types supported by MF753 can be found at the following website

Usable Paper - Canon - imageCLASS MF753Cdw / MF751Cdw - User's Guide (Product Manual)

It is recommended to choose Heavy 3 or Coated 3 as the media type

The heat applied to film media would be a problem on a laser printer.

Also, the toner image is not transparent (unlike the inks of an inkjet printer, which ARE transparent). So laser-printed transparencies would not transmit light very well when viewing them or projecting them.
