Chapter 1: Getting Started
What is Bubble Jet Direct?
Bubble Jet Direct is a product feature that allows you to print photos directly from
a compatible Canon camera without the use of a computer.
The PowerShot cameras connect to the Bubble Jet printer through the cable
supplied with the printer.
Connecting the Camera to the Printer
1.
Turn on the printer.
2. Make sure the digital camera is turned off.
3.
Open the protective terminal
cover on the side of the
camera to locate the cable
jack. Then connect the camera
to the printer as shown,
making sure the “Canon” logo
on the cable faces the front of
the camera (lens side).
When printing photos from your camera on your Bubble Jet
printer, using the camera’s optional AC adapter to power the
camera is preferred. If you choose to use the battery pack, always
make sure it is fully charged, or the printing may stop when the
charge on the camera battery diminishes.
