# Printing from USB Memory (Memory Media Print)

You can print image files and PDF files stored in a USB memory device by connecting it directly to the machine. Using this function, you can print without using a computer.

##### Available File Formats

You can print the following types of image files.
JPEG (DCF/Exif 2.21 or earlier/JFIF)
TIFF (JPEG/MH/MR/MMR compression)
PDF

For JPEG and TIFF files, maximum printable data size per file*1 is 20 MB*2. For PDF files, maximum printable data size per file is 2 GB. Note that even some files smaller than the size described above may not be printed correctly. *1 For multi-page TIFF files, maximum data size is per page. *2 Setting <Secure Print Settings> to <Off> allows data of up to 50 MB to be printed (Secure Print Settings).

##### Available USB Memory Devices

You can use USB memory devices with the following format styles.
FAT16 (memory capacity: up to 2 GB)
FAT32 (memory capacity: up to 32 GB)

Do not use non-standard USB memory devices. You may not be able to print the images properly in some USB memory devices. USB memory devices cannot be connected via a USB hub or an extension cable. Do not use USB memory devices with special functions such as built-in security functions.

The USB ports of the machine support USB 2.0. If a folder in a USB memory device has many files, scanning image files to print will take more time. Use your computer to delete unnecessary files on your USB memory device or move them to a different folder.

1
Connect a USB memory device to the USB port on the front of the machine.
Do not remove the USB memory device or shock or shake the device or the machine when data is being read or written. Also, do not turn OFF the machine while the processing is in progress.

<2-Sided> may not be available with some sizes or types of paper. Paper

###### <Print Quality>

You can change settings related to print quality.

<Density> Adjust the toner density to be used for printing. Make adjustment using /, and then tap <Apply>. Note that if <Toner Save> is set to <On>, you cannot set this item. Making fine adjustment of toner density When you want to make fine adjustments of toner density on three density levels - high, medium, and low -, use the following procedure. <Fine Adjust> Select the density level Adjust the density <Apply> <Apply>

<Toner Save> Tapping <On> prints in toner saving mode. Select <On> when you want to check the layout or other appearance characteristics before proceeding to final printing of a large job.

###### <Set JPEG/TIFF Details>

Specify the default settings of the memory media print function for JPEG and TIFF files.

<Print Date> If you tap <On>, you can print the modification date of the file below each image. Although <Print Date> is not available for Index Print, the modification date of the file is automatically printed below each image.

<Print File Name> If you tap <On>, you can print the file name below each image. Although <Print File Name> is not available for Index Print, the file name is automatically printed below each image.

<Original Type> You can select the type of original depending on the image to print. Select <Photo Priority> or <Text Priority>. #### <Photo Priority> Gives priority to printing photo images smoothly. #### <Text Priority> Gives priority to printing text clearly.

<Brightness> You can adjust the brightness of printouts. Tap / to adjust the brightness, and tap <Apply>. <Brightness> is not available for printing those TIFF files that are not JPEG-compressed. #### <-> Prints images darker. #### <+> Prints images brighter.
