Note: • Memory Stick/PRO, SD/MMC and xD-Picture Card shares the same slot.
• 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 (Photos Mode) ( p. 32 ) ”.

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION Specification for Each Function31
The printer does not detect any files stored under the following
directories or their sub-directories.
• Directories containing system properties or hidden properties.
• “RECYCLED” (Windows directory for deleted files)
• “PREVIEW” (directories of CASIO DSC for thumbnail images)
• “SCENE” (directories of CASIO DSC for its Best Shot function)
• “MSSONY” (directories of SONY DSC for e-mail images, voice memos,
movies, or non-compressed images)
• “DCIM\ALBUM\IMAGE” (directories of CASIO DSC for its album
function)
1.7.2.3 Automatic Detection of Images in Memory Card
When a memory card is inserted in the card slot on the printer, or when a memory card
is detected at power-on, the printer automatically searches for all images stored in the
card. When the card is removed, the printer erases the information on the all detected
files.

Up to 9,990 imagesWhen a memory card stores 9,990
or more images, the first 9,990
images are detected and become
valid in the printer. The detecting
order varies depending on the
folder configuration in the card, so
which images are included in the
first 9,991 cannot be defined.
However, images specified by
camera definition files can be
selected to be printed even when
the total number of images has
exceeded 9,990. Up to 999 camera
defined image files can be
specified.

each of them.
If over 1,000 files exist in the
memory card, up to 999 files can
be numbered and displayed on
LCD. You can select which 999
files should be displayed from the
menu on LCD.
The printer acquires date and time

• The image number assigned by
the printer may be different from
that assigned by the camera.
• If two or more files have the
same full pathname, the sorting
function may not operate
properly. (existence of the same
full-pathname is not allowed
under DOS)
Date and time information included
in an image file is not always the
shooting date and time. It changes
each time the image is edited and
restored. The printer acquires the
latest date and time information.
