This article provides tips for printing directly from your camera, without having to download your photos to a computer first.

Some digital cameras require you to download photos to a computer before you can print them. However, newer cameras allow you to print directly from the camera, either wirelessly or via a USB cable.

Some cameras require specific software to allow you to print directly, while others only allow direct printing to specific printer models. Check your camera's user manual to determine what restrictions your camera has for direct printing.

PictBridge is a common software package built into some cameras that allows you to print directly from the camera. It gives you various options to adjust the size or select the number of copies. If your camera has PictBridge, it should automatically appear on the LCD screen when you connect it to a printer.
