Using the Bundle Software
The Setup Software & User’s Guide CD-ROM includes photo applications designed to edit 
the photographs taken by a digital camera and print them as photo-lab quality prints 
without standard white borders. Please use the application(s) suitable for your print 
purposes.

Easy-PhotoPrint (Windows/Macintosh)
You can make Borderless Printing easily and quickly, just by selecting a photograph 
taken with a digital camera and the paper type on which to print. Also it has tools to 
correct red eye caused by the cameras flash or smooth and beautify the facial skin. It 
is compatible with Exif Print*.

PhotoRecord (Windows)
You can create fun and unique photo albums with the decorative themes such as frame, 
background, and clip-art. You can also copy or move the decorated photos. It is 
compatible with Exif Print*.

Easy-WebPrint (Windows)
You can easily print out homepages displayed on Internet Explorer at full size without 
its right-hand side being cropped. This application is automatically added to the 
Internet Explorer toolbar. Internet Explorer 5.5 or later must be installed.
For more information on the applications, refer to the 
Photo Application Guide.
* Exif Print is the worldwide standard. Under Exif Print, the digital camera can record data tags for specific 
camera settings and functions such as whether the flash was on or off, if the camera was in portrait or 
night scene mode, etc.
Canon BJ Printers support Exif Print and use a suitable photo application to read the camera data 
precisely, producing optimal prints. This enables you to create prints that reproduce color more 
accurately.
Notes
To install applications, refer to Easy Setup Instructions.

For details about using the photo applications, refer to the Photo 
Application Guide
 included on the Setup Software & Users Guide CD-ROM.
