I
always print directly from my camera to my
Canon printer using the
Canon Direct Print
function.
If I change the firmware to
make my camera PictBridge-compatible, will I
still be able to print with the Canon Direct Print
functions?
|
| |
Yes, you will still be able to print that way.
This firmware update adds the PictBridge functions to your
camera.
Therefore, you can print directly from your camera to your printer even if
you change the firmware of your camera.
|
| |
Note, however, that different camera models
may have different displays on the camera screen,
or different paper compatibility. |
| What
equipment is needed to print with PictBridge? |
| |
The basic requirements are (1)
a PictBridge-compatible digital camera or digital
video camera, (2) a PictBridge-compatible printer,
and (3) a connecting cable. Each of these requires
the appropriate battery, memory, printer paper,
etc. The PowerShot/DIGITAL IXUS camera series
comes with the IFC-300PCU interface cable for
PictBridge-compatible printer connections.
|
| Are
operations on a PictBridge connection the same
for all digital cameras and printers? |
| |
If both are Canon products, the
operations are fundamentally the same. When used
in combination with other manufacturers' products,
the operations are determined by the camera specifications. |
