Printing From Your Digital Camera
You can select and print images from a digital camera that supports the PictBridge standard. 
A Canon brand compact digital camera will be used as an example to explain the print method. If operations 
are different for the digital camera you use, refer to the user guide included with your digital camera.
You cannot stop printing with the v button. Use the digital camera to stop printing.
PictBridge is an industry standard established by the Camera & Imaging Products  Association (CIP A). It 
allows you to print images taken with any digital camera or video camera, regardless of the manufacturer 
or model, by connecting to a printer without using a computer.


Make sure that a memory card is not inserted 
in SELPHY, and it is not connected to a 
computer.
Connect SELPHY to the digital camera using 
the interface cable (USB cable) included with 
the digital camera.
First turn on SELPHY, then turn on the
digital camera and play back the images
on the digital camera.
Depending	on	the	digital	camera	you	use,		may	appear	
on	the	digital	camera’s	screen.
Perform the necessary operations on your 
digital camera to select an image for printing.
Use	the	digital	camera	to	start	printing.
Printing	starts.
After printing has completed, turn off SELPHY and the 
digital camera, then unplug the cable.
