Printing Photographs Directly from a
PictBridge Compliant Device
Connecting a PictBridge compliant device such as a digital camera, camcorder or mobile phone to
the printer allows you to print recorded images directly without using a computer.
Notes
PictBridge is an industry standard enabling a range of digital photo solutions, including the direct
printing of photos from a digital still camera, camcorder or mobile phone
computer.
The Print Head cannot be aligned using the controls of the digital device. You can align the print head
from the controls of the printer. If the printer driver is not installed in the computer, align the print head in
this way.
With the printer on, load a sheet of A4 or Letter-sized plain paper in the Auto Sheet Feeder. Hold the
RESUME/CANCEL button until the POWER lamp flashes four times.

Hereafter, the PictBridge compliant digital camera, digital camcorder, or camera-equipped mobile
phone are collectively called a PictBridge compliant device.
