Accessing a Memory Card From a Computer

You can write or read data on an external storage device such as a memory card that has been inserted in the printer from a computer.

Important:

Insert a memory card after removing write protection.
If an image is saved to the memory card from a computer, the image and the number of photos are not refreshed on the LCD screen. Remove and insert the memory card again.
When sharing an external device inserted in the printer between computers connected over USB and over a network, write access is only allowed to the computers that are connected by the method you selected on the printer. To write to the external storage device, enter Settings on the control panel and select File Sharing and a connection method.

The network drive appears in Computer or My Computer.
