Printing Photographs Directly from a Digital Camera

Connecting a digital still camera or camcorder to the printer allows you to print recorded images directly without using a computer. This printer supports both “PictBridge” and Canon “Bubble Jet Direct.”

PictBridge is an industry standard enabling a range of digital photo solutions, including the direct printing of photos from a digital still camera or a digital video camcorder* without the need to use a computer.

Canon “Bubble Jet Direct” allows you to print photos from a Canon “Bubble Jet Direct” compatible (“PictBridge” incompatible) digital camera or digital video camcorder without a computer by simply connecting the digital camera or digital video camcorder to this printer. *Hereafter, the digital still camera and digital video camcorder are collectively called a digital
