    Solution

      This section describes how to print directly by operating a Canon camera that is connected to the printer.
      CAUTION
      • Screens, menu listings, or the locations of buttons may differ depending on the camera model being used.
      • These instructions show how to print one image on one sheet of paper as an example.
      • A Canon brand camera will be used as an example to explain the print method. If operations are different for the camera you use, refer to the user guide for your camera.

      1. Check that there is no memory card inserted and that no computer is connected to printer.

      2. Connect the camera to the printer and turn on the printer.



      Connect the printer and camera with the interface cable that came with your camera.
      Turn on the printer.

      NOTE
      • You cannot stop printing with the <BACK> () button. Use camera operations to stop printing.
      • PictBridge is an industry standard established by the Camera & Imaging Products Association (CIPA). It allows any digital camera or video camera, regardless of the manufacturer or model, to print images taken with the camera directly to a printer without using a computer.
