    digital camera, a USB memory, a photo
    storage device, or other external device
    and print an image directly from the
    external device.
    Notes
    • We cannot guarantee connection with all
    types of mass storage devices.
    • If a memory card is inserted in the printer, the
    printer cannot read the signal from an
    external device connected to the PictBridge
    connector of the printer. Remove the memory
    card, if any.
    1Set your digital camera or other
    external device ready for printing
    with the Mass Storage-compliant
    printer.
    The settings and operations that are
    necessary before connection differ
    depending on the external device you
    use. For details, see the operating
    instructions of the external device. (In
    case of Sony Cyber-shot digital
    camera, for example, select “Normal”
    mode or “Mass Storage” mode for the
    “USB Connect”. )

    device to the PictBridge connector
    of the printer.

    digital camera or other external
    device, if necessary.
    Printing in the direct mode is
    possible.
    Notes
    • If you use a commercially available USB
    cable, please use the one shorter than 3m in
    length.
    • While the access indicator of the external
    device is flashing, never turn off the power of
    the printer or an external device nor remove
    the USB cable.  The data inside the external
    device may be damaged. We cannot

    Printing from a PC
    Notes
    • If a hub is used to connect the printer and
    your PC, or if two or more USB devices
    including other printers are connected to your
    PC, a trouble may occur.  If this occurs,
    simplify the connections between your PC
    and the printer.
    • You cannot operate the printer from another
    USB device being used simultaneously.
    • Do not remove the USB cable from or connect
    it to the printer during data communication
    or printing.  The printer may not work
    properly.
    • Do not allow the PC connected to the printer
    to switch to standby mode or hibernation
    mode during printing. If you do so, the
    printer may not print properly.
    • We cannot guarantee operations with all PCs,
    even though they may meet or exceed the
    system requirements.
    • Picture Motion Browser supports the DirectX
    technology and the DirectX installation may
    be required.
    DirectX is available in the CD-ROM.
    • If the Picture Motion Browser is installed on a
    PC on which the Cyber-shot Viewer is
    already installed, the Cyber-shot Viewer will
    be overwritten and replaced by the Picture
    Motion Browser. The browsing folders once
    registered in the Cyber-shot Viewer will be
    automatically registered in the Picture Motion
    Browser. When using the Picture Motion
    Browser, you can view the folders easier than
    you can when using the Cyber-shot Viewer,
    as the registered folders are displayed by
    group when viewing folders. With its
    improved red-eye reduction adjustment and
    newly-added tone curve adjustment, the
    Picture Motion Browser also offers more
    powerful editorial features. You can also use
