- A communication time out occurs if an operation takes too long or if it takes too much time to send data. This may cancel printing. In such cases, disconnect and reconnect the USB cable.

You may also have to turn on your device or select Play mode manually after connecting the device to the machine. Perform necessary operations before connecting your device referring to its instruction manual. If the error is still not resolved, check if you can print another photograph.
- Check your device connected to the machine. Only PictBridge compliant devices or the optional Bluetooth Unit BU-20 can be connected to the machine for direct printing.

If a PictBridge compliant device is connected via a USB hub, remove the hub and connect it directly to the machine.

- Turn off the machine, and unplug the power cord of the machine from the power supply. After a while, plug the power cord of the machine back in, and then turn on the machine. If the same error occurs, contact your Canon service representative.
