Pictbridge
Feature  |
What
is PictBridge?
PictBridge is a standardized technology
that allows printing images from a memory card in
a digital camera directly to a printer, regardless
of brand, without having to connect the camera to
a computer. Each device is automatically recognized
by the other.
The camera compares its PictBridge functions to
the functions of the printer. The camera then displays
the supported functions on menus on the LCD screen
or in the viewfinder.
Once a PictBridge digital camera is connected to
a compliant printer, print options appear on the
camera monitor (LCD). The camera menu system is
used to make settings such as print size, layout,
media type and date.
You can print a single image displayed on the camera,
print two or more images or print all images on
the memory card. You can print part of an image
by first cropping it within the camera and even
create index prints (contact sheets).
In PictBridge, the DSC is connected directly to
a printer via a USB cable as shown below. The DSC
operates as a USB "Device" and the printer
works as a USB "Host".
Benefits of PictBridge
 |
| - |
The ability to quickly print the image displayed
by interacting with the Digital Still Camera
|
| - |
Provide a way for customers to have a very
easy to use solution |
| - |
A standard that will provide for wide interoperability |
| - |

| - |
The specification is independent of the
physical interface or transport layer protocol
|
| - |
Allow for future enhancements that will
contribute continuing to build a digital photo
culture |
Compatibility
To find out if a camera or printer is PictBridge
compatible, look for the PictBridge logo on the
packaging or check the manual for specifications. |
