Printing Photographs Directly from a
Compliant Device

Printing from a PictBridge Compliant Device

You can connect a PictBridge compliant device such as a digital camera, camcorder, or mobile
phone and print recorded images directly without using a computer.
Note
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* without the need to use a
computer. A device can be connected to this machine for direct printing regardless of the manufacturer
or the model as long as it complies with the PictBridge standard.
You can select the images to print and specify various print settings from your camera or mobile phone.
* PictBridge compatible digital still cameras, digital camcorders, and camera-equipped mobile phones
are hereafter collectively referred to as "PictBridge compliant device".
A device with this mark is PictBridge-compatible.
