About Printing

This camera supports direct printing. By connecting the camera to an optional direct print compatible printer (CP Series)*¹ or a Bubble Jet printer (sold separately) that supports the direct print function, you can send the images from the CF card directly to the printer using the camera buttons. Or, you can specify the images on your CF card you want to print and how many copies you want (DPOF*² Print Settings), and then take the CF card to a participating photo lab to have them printed out later.

*¹ The direct print icon appears on direct print compatible CP Series printers.

*² Digital Print Order Format
