About the Direct Print
Function
The Direct Print standard enables direct
printing from a camera to a printer, by con-
necting them via a USB cable. Photos can be
printed quickly and easily from your digital
camera without using a computer.
You cannot print movies (.AVI) with this func-
tion. For still images with sounds (.JPG and
.WAV), only the still images (.JPG) are
printed.
• This camera uses PictBridge, an industry
standard for Direct Printing.
• Your printer must be PictBridge compliant
to use the Direct Print function. For support
information, see the documentation that
came with the printer.
Sending Images to a
Printer for Printing
You can send images from the camera to a
PictBridge compliant printer to print them.
Images are sent from the internal memory
when no SD memory card is loaded or from
an SD memory card when one is installed.
The following three kinds of direct printing
are supported:
• Printing one image (P.99)
• Printing all images from the camera (P.100)
• Printing several selected images (P.101)
When printing multiple images, you can print
any of them as many times as specified on
one sheet.
Do not disconnect the USB cable during
printing.
If a printer error message appears during
transmission, check the condition of the
printer, and take the appropriate action.
The USB cable con-
nects the camera
directly to a printer.
