Connecting the Printer to Your Computer
Notes about connection
Using the USB cable, be sure to connect the printer directly to your computer. If you connect it via a USB hub, the printer may not function properly.
Do not use the printer together with other USB devices (except a USB mouse or keyboard); otherwise the printer may not function properly. If this happens, disconnect the other USB devices from your computer and then reconnect the printer.
Do not connect two or more direct print compatible printers (all CP series printers) to the same computer; otherwise the printers may not function properly.
Do not put your computer into the sleep mode while the printer is connected to a USB port. If you accidentally do so, do not disconnect the USB cable from your computer while it is in the sleep mode; instead, leaving the USB cable connected, first return your computer to its normal mode. If you remove the USB cable while your computer is in the sleep mode, your computer may not be able to return to its normal mode. For details on your computer’s sleep mode, refer to the documentation provided with your computer.

Connect one end of the USB cable to the USB port on the printer, and the other end to a USB port on your computer.
• There is no need to turn off the printer or your computer.
When connecting the printer to your computer, make sure the connectors on the ends of the USB cable match the ports on the printer and your computer.
For the location and direction of your computer’s USB port, refer to the documentation provided with your computer.

USB cable
If your computer has more than one USB port, it does not matter which USB port you use to connect the printer.
There is no need to turn off the printer or your computer when disconnecting the USB cable.

Printing
This section describes how to use ImageBrowser to print images with the printer. ImageBrowser is an application included on the Canon CP Printer Solution Disk. This application makes it easy to print.
Before printing, verify that the printer is on (the indicator on the printer is green), and that the printer is properly connected to your computer with a USB cable.
Printers and computer displays use different color reproduction methods, and lighting conditions and display settings affect the appearance of colors on your computer’s display. Therefore, the colors in prints may differ from what you see on the screen. This is not a printer malfunction.
For information on how to install ImageBrowser, see the Printer User Guide.
The screen examples and descriptions given in this section are for the CP-330. Operate the CP-220 in the same way.
