Make sure the PictBridge-enabled digital camera is set to the correct USB mode. For more information, see
the camera documentation.

The printer recognizes one active media device at a time. If you insert more than one media device, a message
appears on the display prompting you to designate the device you want the printer to recognize.

be displayed telling the you to remove one of the devices.

If the PictBridge connection is successful, the following appears on the printer display: PictBridge
camera detected. Press

messages on the printer display” on page 158.

Note: To prevent smudging or scratching, avoid touching the printed surface with your fingers or sharp objects. For
best results, remove each printed sheet individually from the paper exit tray, and allow the prints to dry at least 24
hours before stacking, displaying, or storing.
