Printing With Non-Canon Digital Cameras - Canon SELPHY CP400 User Manual

Printing with Non-Canon Digital Cameras

Since the CP400 printers support the direct print PictBridge* standard, you can
connect PictBridge compliant non-Canon digital cameras to easily print high
image quality photos.
* PictBridge: PictBridge is an industry standard for direct printing that allows you to print
images without using a computer by directly connecting a digital camera or digital camcorder
(hereafter "camera") to a printer, regardless of their brands and models.
Before Using the Printer
Please read carefully the user guide that came with your camera and make sure
that:
• The camera is PictBridge compliant.
• You are using the USB cable for the camera/computer connection to connect the printer to
the camera. (This cable may be included with the camera)
• You set the print settings with the camera. For details, refer to the camera's user guide.
Connecting the Camera
Insert one end of the USB cable used for the camera/computer connection in the
printer's direct print port (see p. 29) and insert the other end in the camera's
terminal. (For details, refer to the camera's user guide)
• The printer's display window blinks blue several times once the printer and camera are
correctly connected. The display window lights steadily blue once it is ready to print.
• If a problem occurs during a connection or during printing, the printer's display window lights
or blinks red. If this happens, the error message that appears on the camera's LCD monitor
may differ according to your camera model.
Printing Functions
When printing with non-Canon cameras, the following items differ from Canon-
camera printing operations.
Functions Available with Non-Canon Cameras
• This option allows you to print the specified number of multiple images on a single sheet of
paper.
• This option allows you to fix images at a size smaller than the paper they will be printed on,
allowing you to write in the resulting blank area.
• Printing different selected images on an 8-label sheet.
• If you connect a camera which has an automatic image enhancement function to the printer,
the image is automatically adjusted for even more beautiful prints. (With Canon Cameras,
the image is adjusted without using this function.)
You can use these options if they are supported by your camera.
