Printing with Non-Canon Digital Cameras

Since the CP710/CP510 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:

zThe camera is PictBridge compliant.

zYou are using the retractable USB cable or the USB cable for the camera/computer connection to connect the printer to the camera. (This cable may be included with the camera.)

zThe camera’s communication settings are configured correctly.*

zYou set the print settings with the camera.*

*For details, refer to the camera’s user guide.

„Connecting the Camera

Connect the retractable USB cable to the camera’s terminal. If the connector on the camera side does not match up, insert one end of the USB cable included with your camera in the printer’s direct print port (p. 20, 21) and insert the other end in the camera’s terminal. (For details, refer to the camera’s user guide.)

zThe printer’s power button blinks green several times once the printer and camera are correctly connected. The power button lights steadily green once it is ready to print.

zIf a problem occurs during a connection or during printing, the printer’s power button 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 speed may differ according to your camera model and the image’s number of recorded pixels. (The value written on page 64 is a printing speed obtained when printing with a Canon camera.)
