• Use of the AC adapter is recommended when connecting the camera to a printer. The printer may not work properly or the image data may be lost if the batteries run out of power while the camera is connected to the printer.

•Do not disconnect the USB cable during data transfer.

•Depending on the type of printer, not all the settings made on the camera (such as print settings and DPOF settings) may be valid.

•A printing error may occur if the selected number of copies exceeds 500.

•You cannot use the camera to select multiple images for printing on a single sheet. Make the settings on the printer. For details, refer to the operating manual for your printer.

•RAW images cannot be printed directly. Use a PC to print RAW images.
