About Printing

After connecting the camera to an optional Canon direct print function compliant printer, you can
easily print images just by using the controls on the camera. Or, you can specify the images on
your CF card you want to print and how many copies you want (DPOF* Print Settings), and then
take the CF card to a participating photo lab to have them printed out later.
Refer to the System Map included with this camera kit for printer information.
