• When cards are inserted in the two slots at once, the slot which will be accessed first is determined according to the priority shown in the table.

• To select a card that has been inserted in a non-active slot, first remove the card in the active slot.

• In memory card direct printing mode, the image files in the active slot are valid and have assigned frame numbers. The number of images will not change if a card is inserted in another nonselected slot.

• When the card inserted in the slot is accessed from the PC, only one drive is displayed at a time as a removable disk* and only the card that is in the active slot can be accessed via the removable disk. A card that has been inserted into a non-selected slot cannot be accessed. (This is for Windows. For Macintosh, the card in the active slot will be mounted on the desktop.)

• Does not support 5V type of memory cards.

• When a memory card is being accessed, do not touch the memory card.

• For detailed information on the supported file system and formatting the memory card, refer to “ 1.7.2 Memory Card Direct Print Function ( p. 31 ) ”.
