z “PictBridge” or Canon “Bubble Jet Direct” compatible digital cameras can be
connected to your printer for direct printing.
z This section describes errors that are indicated on Canon-brand PictBridge-
or Bubble Jet Direct-compatible cameras. The error messages and operations
may vary depending on the camera you are using.
For errors on non-Canon PictBridge-compatible cameras, count the number of
flashes the POWER lamp on the printer makes and check for the cause of the
error and take the appropriate action. For details, see “Handling Error
Messages” on page 75.
z Connecting a digital camera not compatible with “PictBridge” or “Bubble Jet
Direct” makes the POWER lamp on your printer flash nine times. In such a
case, unplug the cable connecting the camera to the printer, and press the
RESUME/CANCEL button on the printer.
z A communication time out occurs if printing takes a long time or if it takes too
much time to send data. This may stop printing. In such a case, disconnect
the cable between the printer and the camera, press the RESUME/CANCEL
button on the printer, and reconnect the cable between the printer and the
camera. Then, turn the camera on, if it does not automatically turn on. If the
problem is still unresolved, select some other photo and check if it can be
printed or not.
z The print head nozzles may be clogged if printing becomes faint or colors are
incorrect. See “When Printing Becomes Faint or Colors are Incorrect” on page
48.
z If the paper is curled or its surface is scratched during printing, make sure
that you are using the correct type of paper. If this error occurs even when
you are using the correct type of paper, select Prevent paper abrasion on
Custom Settings in the printer driver. See “Print Quality is Poor or Contains
Errors” on page 67.
z To disconnect the cable connected between the digital camera and printer,
follow the procedure below.
1. Disconnect the cable from the printer.
2. Turn off the digital camera.
3. Disconnect the cable from the digital camera.
When disconnecting the cable, be sure to hold the connector by its sides.
z For the errors indicated on the camera and their solution, also refer to the
user’s manual of the camera. For other troubles on the digital camera,
contact the manufacturer.
