You can connect your camera to a printer and print using Wi-Fi.
When establishing a wireless connection with a printer, you can either use the camera as an access point (Camera Access Point Mode) or use another access point.
IMPORTANT
  • This camera requires a PrintBridge-compatible printer (supporting DPS over IP) for printing via Wi-Fi.
NOTE

  • Follow these instructions when using the camera as an access point.
To connect using another access point, please refer to Sending images to a computer (Wi-Fi function) (PowerShot N2).
