Cause/Solutions

The printed
pictures are
inferior in quality.

• Did you print preview image

data?

c Depending on the type of digital camera

used, preview images may be displayed
along with the primary images in the
thumbnail list. The printed quality of the
preview images will not be as good as the
primary images. Note that if you delete
the preview images, the data for the
primary images may be damaged.

• Did you print an image

whose size (width or height)
is smaller than 480 dots?

c When an image is displayed in a small

size with a black frame, printing quality is
rough due to this small image size.

• Did you use the Edit menu to

enlarge the image?

c An enlarged image, depending on its

image size, will be printed with
deteriorated picture quality.

• Did you shoot an image in

the RAW file format?

c When you shoot an image in the RAW file

format, a highly-compressed JPEG file
may be also recorded. As the printer does
not support the RAW file format, it may
use the JPEG file to print an image. A
RAW file can be printed from a PC. For
details, refer to the operating instructions
of the digital camera you are using.

What is a RAW file?
A RAW file is an original image file
format to save uncompressed,
unprocessed still image data captured
from a digital camera.

For whether or not a digital camera can
capture an image in the RAW file format,
refer to the operating instructions of the
digital camera.
