Printing from an external device

You can connect a mass-storage-complaint digital camera, a USB memory, a photo storage device, or other external device and print an image directly from the external device.

We cannot guarantee connection with all types of mass storage devices.

If a memory card is inserted in the printer, the printer cannot read the signal from an external device connected to the PictBridge connector of the printer. Remove the memory card, if any.
