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 (p.22)”.

1.7.4.3 General Operation Procedure
Before connecting the DSC, check that the printer is in the
following status.
• No print job from a computer is processed or performed.
• Direct print from a memory card is not processed or performed.
• Stand alone copy using the scanner function is not operating.
• No paper out error or ink out error is occurring.
The DSC direct print procedure differs depending on the DSC specifications.The
following explains common procedure.
1. Setting on the printer
Before connecting a DSC with a USB cable, make the print settings such as paper
type/size, layout setting on the printer. This may not be required for some DSCs.
2. Setting on the DSC
Make the following settings on the DSC before connecting it to the printer. Some
DSCs may require to first connect to the printer for making the settings.
• When printing multiple images, specify images and number of copies using
the DPOF and Multiple Sheet* menus. The menus may not be available on
some DSCs.
Note*: The Multiple Sheet setting is available when using PictBridge.
• When printing a single image
<USB Direct Print>
Use the Single Sheet menu to specify an image and the number of copies.
The menu may not be available on some DSCs.
<PictBridge>
Specify an image and the number of copies. Specifying the number of
copies may not be available on some DSCs.
• Select the paper type/size, layout, and make the Fit to Frame setting if
necessary. These settings may not be available on some DSCs.
3. Starting to print
When the print settings on both the printer and the DSC is completed, follow the
procedure below to start printing.
1. Connect the printer and the DSC with a USB cable. Using a USB cable
included in the DSC package is recommended.
2. Operate the DSC to start printing.
3. Printing is carried out according to the settings made on the DSC. When some
print settings have not been made on the DSC, the corresponding settings
made on the printer are applied.

The [Stop/Clear setting] button on the control panel also cancels the print job.
When performing memory card direct print after printing from a DSC, the
USB cable connecting the DSC must be disconnected from the printer in
advance.
Print settings made on both the DSC and the printer can become impossible
settings for the printer due to unsupported combination of paper type, paper
size and layout. In such case, the print settings are automatically changed as
follows.
USB Direct Print
The selected paper type is maintained, and the paper size and layout
settings are changed to the default for the selected paper type.
PictBridge
The settings made on the DSC are maintained. Any print setting items that
are not specified by the DSC are changed in accordance with the DSC
settings. When the paper type is changed, changed to Prem. Glossy, when
the paper size is changed, changed to 4x6 size. And when the layout is
changed, changed to Borderless layout.

When the DSC is disconnected after
it is normally recognized by the
printer, the printer returns to the

When a camera direct error has
occurred, the printer recovers from
the error and returns to the previous
state (the state before the camera is
connected). If the error occurs for the
camera connected before the printer
is turned on, the printer returns to the
initial state after the power-on.
The printer does not recover from the

except the Power button is pressed,
the printer returns to the camera
