Cannot print images with the date inserted.
• You can print images with the date inserted using “Picture Motion Browser”.
• This camera does not have a feature for superimposing dates on images. However, because the
images shot with the camera include information on the recording date, you can print images
with the date superimposed if the printer or the software can recognize Exif information. For
compatibility with Exif information, consult the manufacturer of the printer or the software.
• When you print images at a shop, images can be printed with the date inserted if you ask them
to do so.
A connection cannot be established.
• The camera cannot be connected directly to a printer that is not compliant with the PictBridge
standard. Consult the printer manufacturer as to whether the printer is compliant with
PictBridge or not.
• Check that the printer is turned on and can be connected to the camera.
• Set [USB Connect] to [PictBridge] (page 63).
• Disconnect and connect the USB cable again. If an error message is indicated on the printer,
refer to the operating instructions supplied with the printer.

USB cable again. If you still cannot print your images, disconnect the USB cable, turn the
