5.3 PictBridge problems

Images in a connected digital camera do not print

There are several reasons why images in a connected digital camera do not print:

•The digital camera is not PictBridge-compatible.

•The digital camera is not in PictBridge mode.

•The images are not in a supported format.

•You did not select any photos on the camera for printing.

Check the documentation that came with your camera to ensure it supports PictBridge.

If the camera does support PictBridge, make sure the camera is set to PictBridge mode. For instructions on setting the camera to PictBridge mode, see the documentation that came with the camera.

Verify that the digital camera is saving photos in a file format that the PictBridge transfer feature supports:

•EXIF/JPEG

•JPEG

Before you connect the digital camera to the PictBridge port on the printer, select a few photos on the camera for printing.
