Printing Photographs

When the camera is connected to a PictBridge-compatible printer via the supplied UC-E4 USB cable, selected JPEG photographs can be printed directly from the camera (RAW photographs can not be printed using this method). Before connecting the printer, confirm that it supports PictBridge. To ensure that printing is not interrupted, be sure the camera battery is fully charged.

If in doubt, charge the battery before use or use an EH-5 AC adapter (avail- able separately).

Connecting the USB Cable
