Movie printing8
You can print images from movie files that are 
stored on a memory card or USB Flash 
memory drive.
A movie file is automatically divided into 
9 parts by movie recording times and is 
placed in 3 lines, then you can see and print 
the scenes that have been automatically 
divided.
Note
• You cannot choose a particular movie scene.
• You can use AVI or MOV movie file  formats (Motion JPEG only). However, if 
an AVI file size is 1 GB or more (the 
shooting time is about 30 minutes) or a 
MOV file size is 2 GB or more (the 
shooting time is about 60 minutes), these 
files cannot be printed.
 
Print Images8
Print Index (Thumbnails)8
The PhotoCapture Center™ assigns 
numbers for images (such as No.1, No.2, 
No.3, and so on).

that your digital camera or computer has 
used to identify the pictures. You can print a 
thumbnail page. This will show all the pictures 
on the memory card or USB Flash memory 
drive.
Note
Only file names that are 8 characters or 
less will be printed correctly on the index 
sheet.

camera.

digital camera display the images and 
number of copies you want to print.
When a memory card (Memory Stick™, 
Memory Stick PRO™, Memory Stick Duo™,

machine, you can print the chosen image 
easily.

print order that was created on the camera 
has been corrupted. Delete and recreate 
the print order using your camera to 
correct this problem. For instructions on 
how to delete or recreate the print order, 
refer to your camera manufacturers 
support Web site or accompanying 
documentation.
