6.1 Host PC Memory Card Access Function with the Memory Card Startup Utility
6.1.1. Supported memory cards
Media types compatible with the host computer memory card access function and Memory Card Direct
Printing function are as follows:
Excluding the Flash ATA Card, the PCMCIA card (Type II) adapter is necessary. (A PCMCIA card [Type
II] [Compact Flash, CF2 supported] is packaged with the printer.)
- Compact Flash Card (CF1, CF2 [micro drive])
- Smart Media Card*
- Memory Stick*
- Flash ATA Card
- SD Card*
- Multimedia Card
* In the Memory Card Startup Utility, if Read/Write enabled mode is selected in “Change the drive’s
read/write attribute”, the use of memory cards where the write protection is set to read-only mode is
prohibited, and the operations are not assured.
Note: Cards incompatible with the PC Card ATA interface are not supported.
6.1.2. Mounting the drive
Windows:
When the S530D is connected by USB cable to a host computer with the Memory Card Startup Utility
installed, and the printer is powered on via the Power button, the card slot on the S530D is mounted in My
Computer as a removable drive.
Macintosh:
When the S530D is connected by USB cable to a host computer with the Memory Card Startup Utility
installed, and the printer is powered on via the Power button, and then a supported memory card is
inserted, the card slot on the S530D is mounted on the desktop as a removable drive.
- When the printer is connected to the computer, and is equipped with Image Viewer CV-100, it may take
approx. 10 seconds for the memory card start-up utility to run when a memory card is inserted. (When
the utility is set to “Auto-start an application when a card is inserted” on the Memory Card Startup Utility.
This phenomenon occurs due to the timing of an exclusive process with the CV-100.)
