Direct Printing

Direct Print Function

The Direct Print standard enables direct printing from a camera to a printer, by
connecting them via a USB cable. Photos can be printed quickly and easily
from your digital camera without using a computer.

Caution

• You cannot print movies (.AVI) with this function. For still images with sounds (.JPG and

.WAV), only the still images (.JPG) are printed.

• Some printer does not support images taken in Text mode (TIFF). Even when TIFF images

are printed, their printed contents cannot be guaranteed.

Note

• This camera uses PictBridge, an industry standard for Direct Printing.
• Your printer must comply with the PictBridge to use the Direct Print function. For support

information, see the documentation that came with the printer.

• For direct printing on a printer supporting both Direct Print and PictBridge, select [ORIGINL]

for [USB CONNECTION].
