Printing via Direct USB Connection
Your camera allows pictures to be printed directly from the camera using Pict-
Bridge. If the UC-E6 USB cable is used to connect the camera to a printer that
supports PictBridge, pictures can be printed directly from the memory or the
memory card without having to be transferred to a computer.
1 Choosing PTP in the USB option
Set the USB option to PTP in the Interface menu of
the Set-up menu before connecting the camera to a
printer ( 66).
2 Connecting the USB Cable
After turning the camera off, connect the camera to the printer with the UC-
E6 USB cable (provided with your camera) as shown below. Check to be sure
the connector is in the correct orientation and insert the plug straight.
Do not insert or disconnect it forcibly.
Before Printing
Before printing via a direct USB connection, make sure that the printer supports Pict-
Bridge.
Use a Reliable Power Source
When printing pictures via a direct USB connection, be sure the battery is fully charged.
If in doubt, recharge the battery before printing or use the optional EH-62A AC adapter
kit ( 137).
PictBridge
PictBridge is an industry standard for direct printing that ensures compatibility when
different devices are connected.
