Connecting to a Printer
Users of PictBridge-compatible (
A 157) printers can connect the camera directly
to the printer and print pictures without using a computer.

Notes on Power Source
• When connecting the camera to a computer or printer, use a fully-charged battery to prevent the
camera from turning off unexpectedly.
• To power the camera continuously for extended periods, use an AC Adapter EH-62A (available
separately from Nikon) (
A 136). Do not, under any circumstances, use another make or model
of AC adapter. Failure to observe this precaution could result in overheating or in damage to the
camera.

Printing Pictures
In addition to printing pictures transferred to a computer from your personal printer and printing
over a direct camera-to-printer connection, the following options are also available for printing
pictures:
• Insert a memory card into a DPOF-compatible printer’s card slot
• Take a memory card to a digital photo lab
For printing using these methods, specify the pictures and the number of prints each using your
camera’s print set menu (
