Direct printing (PictBridge)

By connecting the camera to a PictBridge-compatible printer with the USB
cable, you can print out recorded pictures directly. With the camera connected
to the printer, select the pictures you want to print and the number of prints on
the camera's monitor. It is also possible to print out pictures using the print
reservation data (

g P. 140).

To find out if your printer is compatible with PictBridge, refer to the printer's
instruction manual.
