Printing Using Pictbridge; Connecting The Camera To The Printer - Pentax Optio M50 Operating Manual

Printing Using PictBridge

By connecting the camera to a printer that supports PictBridge using the
USB cable (I-USB7) provided, you can print images directly from the
camera without using a PC. Connect the camera to the printer and select
the images you want to print and the number of copies on the camera.
• You are recommended to use the AC adapter kit K-AC78 when the
camera is connected to the printer. The printer may not work
properly or the image data may be lost if the battery runs out of
power while the camera is connected to the printer.
• Do not disconnect the USB cable during data transfer.
• Depending on the model of printer, not all the settings made on the
camera (such as print settings and DPOF settings) may be valid.
• A printing error may occur if the selected number of copies
exceeds 500.
• Printing the index of the images (printing multiple images on a single
sheet) cannot be performed directly from the camera. Make the
settings on a printer supporting index printing function or use a PC.
