Print troubleshooting

Partial 4 x 6 in. (10 x 15 cm) photo prints when using a PictBridge-enabled digital camera

Make sure paper size is set correctly

The printer issues the Paper or Photo Size Error when your chosen photo size does not match the paper size that is set. This typically happens when you are trying to print from a PictBridge-enabled digital camera. You may have left the printer control panel Photo Size menu item setting at 8.5 x 11” or 5 x 7” size, but your camera setting has print size of 4 x 6” or L. You need to make sure your chosen photo size is 4 x 6” or 10 x 15 cm, depending on the typically used photo size for your country or region.

Make sure the 4 x 6 in. (10 x 15 cm) photo paper is loaded correctly.

If your camera lets you change the print size setting, change the print size selection to 4 x 6 in. (10 x 15 cm) on the PictBridge-enabled digital camera.

If your camera does not allow you to change the paper size setting, use the control panel to change the paper size to 4 x 6 in. (10 x 15 cm).

1Insert the USB cable that came with your camera to the camera, and insert the other end into the PictBridge port on the front of the printer.

2Turn the camera on and choose your first photo using the camera control panel.

3Wait for the PictBridge Printing screen to appear on the printer control panel
