B Notes About Connecting the Camera to a Printer

The battery cannot be charged with connection to a printer, even if the printer complies with the PictBridge standard.

When Auto is selected for Charge by computer, it may be impossible to print images with direct connection of the camera to some printers. If the PictBridge startup screen is not displayed in the monitor after the camera is connected to a printer and turned on, turn the camera off and disconnect the USB cable. Set Charge by computer to Off and reconnect the camera to the printer.
