PictBridge

PictBridge is an industry standard for direct printing that ensures compatibility when
different devices are connected.

Printing Via Direct USB Connection

When the camera is connected to a PictBridge-compatible printer via the UC-
E6 USB cable, selected pictures can be printed directly from the camera.

Step 1 — Set the USB Option to PTP

Before pictures can be printed via direct USB connection, the USB option in
the setup menu must be set to PTP (

54; the default option is Mass stor-

age). Be sure to change the USB option before connecting the printer.

for details. Before printing, make sure that the printer supports PictBridge.

Use a Reliable Power Source

When printing pictures via direct USB connection, be sure the battery is fully charged. If
in doubt, recharge the battery before printing or use the optional EH-54 AC adapter.
