Making sure that the 6 mark on the camera is aligned with the 4 mark of the USB cable connector, connect the cable to the camera.

The camera does not draw power over the USB cable. Check the battery level before connecting and make sure it is not too low.

Make sure that you insert the cable connector into the USB/AV port until you feel it click securely into place. Failure to insert the connector fully can result in poor communication or malfunction.

Note that even while the connector is fully inserted, you still will be

able to see the metal part of the connector as shown in the illustration.

When connecting the USB cable to a USB port, make sure you align the connector correctly with the port.

Make sure that the camera is turned off before plugging in or unplugging the cable. Check the user documentation that comes with the printer for information about requirements before plugging into or unplugging from the printer.
