Solution 1: Set the camera to PictBridge mode

Solution 2: Save the photos in a supported file format

Solution 3: Select photos on the camera for printing

Solution 1: Set the camera to PictBridge mode

Solution: If the camera supports PictBridge, make sure the camera is set to
PictBridge mode. See the user guide that came with the camera for instructions on
how to do this.
Cause: The digital camera was not in PictBridge mode.
If this did not solve the issue, try the next solution.

Solution 2: Save the photos in a supported file format

Solution: Make sure the digital camera is saving photos in a file format that the
PictBridge transfer feature supports (Exif/JPEG, JPEG, and DPOF).
Cause: The images were not in a supported format.
If this did not solve the issue, try the next solution.

Solution 3: Select photos on the camera for printing

Solution: Before you connect the digital camera to the front USB port on the
product, select some photos on the camera for printing.

NOTE:

Some digital cameras do not allow you to select photos until after you

have established a PictBridge connection. If this is the case, connect your digital
camera to the front USB port, turn on the camera and change it to PictBridge
mode, and then use the camera to select the photos you want to print.

Cause: You did not select any photos on the camera for printing.

Scan troubleshooting

Use this section to solve these scan problems:

Scanned image is incorrectly cropped

Scanned image shows dotted lines instead of text

Text format is incorrect

Text is incorrect or missing

Scanned image is incorrectly cropped

Solution: The autocropping feature in the software crops anything that is not part
of the main image. Sometimes this might not be what you want. In that case, turn off
autocropping in the software and crop the scanned image manually, or not at all.
Cause: The software was set to automatically crop scanned pictures.
